Face Masks No Longer Required At Dell Diamond Stadium

ROUND ROCK, TX — Face mask coverings will no longer be required to attend games at Dell Diamond, officials said.

The Round Rock Express announced Thursday clubs are now allowed to defer to local authorities on the requirement of face coverings in ballparks by attendees.

The news comes after Major League Baseball provided its clubs with updated COVID-19 health and safety policies Thursday evening related to fan attendance at Professional Development League ballparks.

MLB has eliminated the requirement for buffer zones between the dugout and bullpen and fans in attendance.

Officials said the stadium will continue to provide socially distant, pod-style seating in the entire left field Home Run Porch (Sections 206-209), as well as Sections 110 and 111 for fans who wish to remain socially distanced.
