The Pittsburgh Pirates play their first exhibition game of the season Saturday when they host the Cleveland Indians at a fan-less PNC Park. Game time is 7:05pm.
When the coronavirus-shortened Major League Baseball season begins next week, there won’t be any fans in the stands, but the players will still hear the noise and cheers of a stadium crowd, with MLB to play crowd noise through the ballparks’ sound systems from its official video game, MLB The Show. Stadium sound engineers will be able to use some 75 different effects and reactions, according to MLB. The sounds will also be audible on radio and TV broadcasts.
The Pirates open their regular season a week from today in St. Louis.
