If Covid-19 was a Baseball game, what inning do you think we are currently in?

[JohnGalt2341]

Feel free to tell us why you chose the inning that you did.

[Golden fleece]

i went with 6th

its an official game now

7th inning stretch not too far away either

i think we'll be singing take me out to the ball game soon enough

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

it's the 7th inning stretch boys

[cjwatsonfan32]

Ceremonial first pitch.

[Chi_archie]

bottom of the first in a double header most likely


extra innings possible

[Buckandadime]

Top 6th..
Starters gave it their all in a wide open game...
Goin to the middle relievers now and hope they can keep scoring to a minimum until the stoppers come in to close it out..
As a fan I would hope it goes to extra innings but in this analogy I hope it doesn't go to the bottom of the 9th..
No in-game wagers accepted at this time..

[Tanko]

bottom of the first in a double header most likely


extra innings possible

^^^^^ this

[JMobile]

I would say deep in innings to the point that the position players are starting to pitch because no more relievers are available.

[carolinakid]

in the the 7th , changing pitchers now.

[Mike Huntertz]

First inning. Too many questions unanswered, no vaccine, slow retracement once they do find an answer and people going under will not get back on solid ground.

[ace7550]

Middle of the sixth. Time for another $11 coors light.
I'm assuming this is for when the lock down is over. If you are asking when Corona will be "gone" then the baseball game is endless. Kind of like field of dreams...

[b1slickguy]

Not sure what inning it is, but let's just hope Angel Hernandez is not behind the plate.

[zam77]

3rd just finishing up with end of April. Next month and half will be 4 thru 6. Then 7 thru 9 with game finishing in August 1st.

[cincinnatikid513]

bottom of the 3rd

[seaborneq]

Top of the 3rd inning. Top of the first the virus flummoxed breathers And ended the inning on 3 strikeouts. Bottom of the first some countries realized that coronavirus was throwing some mean and nasty stuff and got bigger bats(shut downs). Top of the second coronavirus shut down all economies. Bottom of the 2nd inning some countries(US)actually finally started taking coronavirus seriously............too late. Top of the third coronavirus has a 10+ run lead, mercy rule is in play.

[hostile takeover]

1st Inning.

Libs have been scared into submission. It's gonna take a generation to get them to crawl out of their domiciles.

[johnnyvegas13]

14th inning

Tied 0-0 since nobody is winning

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

Ceremonial first pitch.

well that's a negative way to look at it

[jjgold]

5th inning

[PittsburghPlayer]

I did not vote because I am not an idiot and know my vote does not mean shit at this stage in the game.

what the "virus" has shown to some is what I have been saying for years, this game (our country) is already over

good time to plant a seed but not in a woman

[kid dienamite]

it's the top of the 7th with 2 outs & Enrico Pallazzo aka Frank Drebin is behind the plate.

[JohnGalt2341]

Little more than a month in... over 40K deaths in the U.S in the last 30 days alone. Could last up to 18 months or longer.

I'm not sure how these 7th and 8th inning picks are doing the math here.

[Wabashwonders]

It’s a doubleheader and we are only about halfway through the first game. Once this game ends, hopefully get a break to work on strategy for game 2 to be played at a later date this year.

[asiagambler]

No idea. Hoping for a rainout

[Art Vandelay]

3rd inning - Full recovery will take quite awhile...

"If covid were a baseball game what inning would we be in" can be interpreted in a lot of different ways.

[Hot Jerry]

2 - 3 inning !!

[Enkhbat]

6th inning, relief pitcher Jared Kushner is on the mound for team USA.

Sharp post!

Definitely true. But no matter how you look at it... I don't see how anyone could think we are in the 7th or 8th inning. I don't see any possible way of this thing being anywhere near more than half over already. I think 3rd inning is even extremely optimistic. Time will tell. I hope this thread ages poorly and all the 7th and 8th inning predictions are correct. But... I definitely would not bet on that.

[deltgen]

For me, it's dependent on what one means by "game is over". Not one person left with the China virus? Never. All businesses allowed to be open? Fifth inning, I suppose? Businesses allowed to be open but with all sorts of restrictions? People regaining all the freedoms we had in early March? Nobody walking around without a mask, whether by choice or by government mandate? What exactly do you mean by "over", meaning what would you consider the third out of the 9th inning?

[Rain Chains]

Life has before and will return back to the normal that existed prior to this.

The lockdown moved the goalposts, but without antibody testing it's really impossible to say where we are with any certainty.

[yahoonino]

Bottom of the 7

[INVEGA MAN]

4th inning and no relief(pitcher) in sight!!

Sounds like a rain out. Won’t even get 5 innings in. Game won’t count.
