UPDATED:

Amid a global pandemic, fans are taking what they can get to see the San Diego Padres, which have been on a player-snagging shopping spree of late. Spring training games in Arizona are in full swing and fans are taking it in, with room to stretch their legs. Cities in the greater Phoenix area are allowing a limited amount of fans into games ranging from less than 10% capacity, a maximum of 1,000 tickets at Scottsdale Stadium, home of the San Francisco Giants, to nearly 27% capacity, around 4,000 fans at Sloan Park in Mesa, home of the Chicago Cubs. Seats are sold in pods of two to six tickets, and pods are socially distanced.

New this year, spring training games may be shortened upon mutual agreement of both managers. Games through March 13th may be shortened to five or seven innings. Games starting March 14th may be shortened to 7 innings.
