On June 24, the Frontier League, in which the Wild Things compete, canceled its 2020 season because of concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic. But the league said teams could pursue other baseball-related activities.

Wild Things Park is putting safety precautions into place. Masks are required, and everyone entering the park will be subject to temperature checks. Anyone with a temperature over 100.4 will be denied entry, along with members of their party.

All fans will enter through the right-field gate and exit at a separate gate on the right field concourse. Other procedures include touchless point-of-sale equipment, no draft beer or fountain soft drinks and required social distancing.

Wild Things Park will also have a special seating area for fans 55 and older.
