Boston Mayor Cancels All Large Crowd Summer Events
Boston mayor Marty Walsh announced Friday that the city is suspending events that bring crowds together in close contact this summer.
"No event should be planned that would involve more than 10 people gathering or that could draw a crowd of any size," the official release states.
When asked explicitly about the Red Sox, Walsh said it is too soon to know if the Boston team will play a home game with fans this year.
“It comes down to metrics, it comes down to data and I think that’s probably what Major League Baseball is looking at,” Walsh said, regarding COVID-19 testing.
