MLB, teams, ticket partners sued over failure to provide refunds
联盟,球队,以及售票公司因为没有给予球迷退款被告
Major League Baseball, its teams and its official ticket resale partner were
sued Monday in federal court by two fans who have tried and failed to get
refunds for games called off because of the coronavirus crisis.
因为中国武汉肺炎关系导致球赛取消,两位球迷因为尝试要退款但是失败,星期一的时候
在美国联邦法院对联盟,球队,以及官方售票公司提起诉讼。
The suit, which seeks the class-action certification that would enable all
fans to join, demands a refund of ticket costs and ancillary fees for games
that have not been played.
这起诉讼正试着寻求成为团体诉讼,要让所有球迷加入,要求要退款以及其他因为比赛取

by providing consumers with refunds for events that will never occur during
this pandemic, sometimes at the risk of bankruptcy, it remains notable that
America’s pastime — baseball — is refusing to do right by its fans,” the
lawsuit reads. “As stadiums remain empty for the foreseeable future,
baseball fans are stuck with expensive and unusable tickets for unplayable
games in the midst of this economic crisis.”
“当美国其他地方的许多企业正遵守法律以及道德要求,对于因为这次传染病导致的活动
取消给予消费者退费,一些企业有时得面对破产的风险,但是更值得注意的是这"美国人的
