WEYMOUTH – The Futures Collegiate Baseball League (“FCBL”) has announced that the May 27 start date of the 2020 season has been delayed in light of the Coronavirus pandemic.

“As soon as we have clarity on guidelines and procedures for playing baseball, we will look to adapt and begin,” said Futures League Commissioner Joe Paolucci. “While all scenarios and contingencies are under consideration, we remain hopeful.”
The FCBL will continue to monitor guidance from governmental and health officials and will update the status of the 2020 season when appropriate as more information becomes available.
