Restaurant and bar owners near Minneapolis’ Target Field are holding their collective breaths as negotiations continue between Major League Baseball owners and the players’ union over salaries and other matters.
Both sides agreed to a new deadline — today — to reach an agreement, or else the start of the regular season will be delayed.
The owner of Darby’s Pub and Grill told K-M-S-P T-V that COVID-19 restrictions, an underperforming Minnesota Twins team, and limited capacity at Twins’ games have hurt his restaurant’s bottom line.
The Twins’ home opener is scheduled for April 7th, but it remains to be seen if that will happen.
