Rewatch 30 classics for Opening Day at Home

March 27th, 2020

Baseball fans around the globe still celebrated Opening Day this year.

On Thursday, Major League Baseball presented “Opening Day at Home” -- a full slate of 30 games broadcast nationally across various platforms, including digital streaming and social media, creating a full-day event on what would have been Opening Day. The experience was intended to invite fans to feel a sense of community and unity on a day many were looking forward to, while underscoring the importance of staying home to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

There was one game -- a victory, of course – broadcast for each MLB club. Fans had the chance to enjoy postseason triumphs, spectacular individual feats and more, reliving fond memories while doing their part to keep their communities safe.

All games were streamed on MLB.com, as well as through one of MLB’s social media channels, on Facebook, Twitter or YouTube. And by using the hashtag #OpeningDayAtHome, fans connected with each other while watching their team’s selected game at a set time.

On top of that, all 2018 and ’19 games are now available for free to all fans through MLB.TV, and many classic games are available in full on YouTube.

“Opening Day at Home” also was an opportunity for MLB to raise awareness for several worthy charities that are helping provide relief to the most vulnerable communities impacted by the pandemic. Last week, MLB and the MLBPA made a $1 million joint donation to Feeding America and Meals on Wheels, in addition to a $30 million commitment made by MLB clubs to emergency relief for ballpark employees. If so willing and able, fans can contribute toward these charities, MLB official charity Boys & Girls Clubs of America and additional causes at MLB.com/give.
