Here’s a pretty cool look back at some of the best player-fan interactions from the 2015 baseball season.
Andrew McCutchen, Miguel Cabrera, and Bryce Harper all deserve props — and they’re all MVPs (assuming Harper wins it this year, which is a pretty safe assumption).

After a condensed 60-game regular season, the MLB playoffs kicked off this week with an usual 16-team format that you can read more about below, but one of the many questions on everyone’s mind is whether or not fans will be allowed to attend MLB playoff games.
There have been no spectators at any games this season but fans will finally have the opportunity to go to the NL Championship Series and World Series at new Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas–one of the few states allowing spectators to attend events this year. The NLCS is scheduled on seven straight days from Oct. 12-18 and the World Series from Oct. 20-28, with traditional off days between Games 2 and 3 and Games 5 and 6, if the Series goes that far. Major League Baseball said Wednesday that about 11,500 tickets will be available for each game.
Below is the format and locations for each round. Unlike the regular season, there will be a bubble setup for each series in the postseason with the exception of the Wild Card round. Click here for the MLB schedule and scoreboard.
All games will be held at the higher seed’s ball park.
No. 1 Rays vs. No. 8 Blue Jays
