Cards, Red Sox, Cubs join teams offering refunds

The St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs announced ticket refund policies on Wednesday for games not played through May because of the coronavirus outbreak, with some Major League Baseball teams offering plans for cash returns and bonus credit.

A day after MLB told clubs they could decide their own ticket refund policies, several did.

The Cleveland Indians said fans who had tickets for home games this March and April could receive a 10% bonus credit for a game later in 2020 or 2021.

The Red Sox extended a similar bonus credit to season ticket holders.

"As we continue to evaluate possibilities for the 2020 season, it's important that we provide options to our ticket buyers for games scheduled in April and May,'' Red Sox president Sam Kennedy said in a statement. "We appreciate how patient our fans have been as we worked through the implications of the pandemic on our schedule."

The Cubs are offering refunds for anyone holding a ticket for games through May or a credit for future games with 5% interest.

Minnesota Twins season ticket holders who have paid in full will receive credit plus an additional 15%. Single-game buyers will receive a credit or can use the Twins' website to request a refund.

Spring training was suspended on March 12 and the regular season was delayed from its scheduled March 26 start because of the new coronavirus pandemic.

A revised schedule has not been announced, with MLB exploring many options to play this year if it's deemed safe by health experts and government leaders.

Two fans sued MLB, the 30 teams and ticket companies last week in federal court in Los Angeles, seeking refunds. The suit asks for class-action status.

ESPN's Jesse Rogers and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
