None jon shestakofsky: when you get up to the admission kiosk - plexiglass has been installed as has the first of many hand sanitizing stations around the museum.

Operating at 25% capacity - there are about 25 visitors allowed in at a time.

Fans can reserve timed tickets available in half- hour intervals.

Jon shestakofsky: during my tour of the hall today - i could certainly see the differences.

Safety protocols have been marked clearly all throughout the building and extra equipment is being provided to avoid direct contact with exhibits.

It's all part of a plan that staff has worked on for a while.

Jon shestakofsky: of course - fans may be excited to take in the history of baseball on its hallowed ground again.

But today's reopening is also exciting for those who work at the hall of fame as well.
