As MLB, the NBA and the NHL return in the US, SportsPro editor at large Eoin Connolly is joined by CNBC sports business reporter Jabari Young to run the rule over the coronavirus challenges in the American industry.
They discuss a difficult start for MLB, the financial battle ahead for all the majors, the power structures between players and owners, and the emerging technological picture. They also talk about the leagues' responses to the Black Lives Matter protests (32.50) and how their efforts against systemic racism will be judged.
Then Major League Lacrosse commissioner Sandy Brown (44.25) is on hand to outline what it took to complete its shortened, pandemic-affected season.
