A Statement from the Durham Bulls

Bulls Fans,

As a valued member of the Bulls family, I appreciate the trust and support you give us year in and year out. I have always looked at Durham Bulls Athletic Park as an escape from the craziness of our daily lives to spend quality time with our families and friends. That is more important now than ever. Those relationships and the health and safety of all Bulls fans have been and always will be our number one priority.

Today’s Major League Baseball announcement to delay Opening Day by at least two weeks will undoubtably impact us here in the Triangle. I applaud their decision as we continue to monitor closely the development of the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation and want to assure you we are taking concerns about the spread of this illness very seriously as we prepare for the 2020 season whenever that may be.

We are staying up to date with all direction from local and state agencies and organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and our partners at Minor League Baseball and Major League Baseball. We are prepared to alter our plan of action if needed at any time. In the meantime, we encourage you to visit our website and follow our social channels for any updates surrounding our approach to dealing with the coronavirus situation. Stay safe.

Sincerely,

Mike Birling
Vice President
