The Los Angeles Angels paid approximately $1.2 million to their game-day employees, who are unable to work at Angel Stadium while the Major League Baseball season is suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reported the news, noting the total payment was split among approximately 1,800 employees who could receive more in the future depending on how long the season is delayed.
Team spokesperson Marie Garvey addressed the act of goodwill in a statement:
"We understand the important contribution that all ballpark workers play in creating a memorable experience at Angel Stadium and have invested over $1 million to provide financial resources during this unprecedented time.
