Boy, can we use baseball’s return

Here’s a ray of sunshine: Major League Baseball is moving to start the season around the Fourth of July.

Fans won’t be able to attend Opening Day in person, but watching the Yankees and Mets play an 80-game season will still be a balm for the quarantined-baseball-lover’s heart.

The owners start working out a deal with the Players Association on Tuesday, but as The Post’s Joel Sherman notes, “there is no way — regardless of both the historic and current bad blood — that MLB and the Players Association are going to shut down the game this year over player compensation. That would be so shoot-yourself-in-the-brain, assure-the-negative-first-line-in-your-obituary stupid that not even these two hostile sides can navigate there.”
