Chair of Herrick's Sports Law Group, Irwin A. Kishner, was quoted by the Associated Press on the return of minor league sports in light of the spread of COVID-19. The article sought Kishner's views on additional sources of revenue for minor league teams while play is suspended, including "mascot, coach or player appearances or selling ad space outside stadiums or arenas." The article was syndicated by over sixty media outlets, including NBC Sports, the Chicago Sun-Times, Yahoo Finance, Newsday, the Miami Herald and Fox Sports.
