Even though there are no concrete plans to restart a baseball season that should be over a month old by now, MLB teams have thus far treated missed games as postponements rather than cancellations. And while teams like the Cubs and White Sox have offered season ticket holders the option to earn 5% interest on their 2020 tickets to put toward next season, the league has not provided guidance when it comes to issuing refunds.
That is about to change, according to a report from Jared Diamond of the Wall Street Journal. MLB will be allowing each of the 30 teams to update their ticket policies and issue refunds for games missed due to the shutdown.
