First, we started to hear about elements of MLB’s 67-page document outlining the proposal for the league to begin its season via The Athletic. Secondly, we also saw other sports leagues such as NASCAR and Bundesliga Soccer begin live action again.

The game starts with 18-20 castaways, divided into two tribes. Over the course of 39 days, the players work to provide food, fire and shelter for themselves.
