The same private sector employer mandate that’s keeping Nets point guard Kyrie Irving off the court in Brooklyn would apply to unvaccinated Yankees and Mets for home games during the 2022 season, according to Stefan Bondy and Dennis Young of the Daily News.
Though mayor Eric Adams repealed the vaccine mandate that covered indoor spaces on March 7, a private employer mandate put in place by the de Blasio administration still applies, which is why Irving still cannot suit up for the Nets during home games.
Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was asked on Tuesday whether or not he was vaccinated, but declined to answer.
