Sports aren't anything without fans, and baseball isn't the exception to that rule. Last year, empty ballparks were just depressing and took away a lot of the fun of the game, let's not going to lie.
That's why it's such great news to know that - even though attendance will be limited - fans are back in the stadium for the 2021 MLB season. And judging for the first couple of games, it's been a massive success. Hopefully, we'll finish the season with stadiums packed at maximum capacity once again.
Fans clearly missed the game as much as the game missed them. That's why there was a big spike in jersey sales over the past couple of weeks. But, who has the most popular jersey for the 2021 Major League Baseball season? Let's find out.
