ST. LOUIS — After the Washington Nationals knocked the Cardinals out of the 2019 playoffs, Kilroy’s St. Louis locked up for the winter, as it always does.
Earnings from the baseball season went to a few building repairs and upgrades — same as every offseason since the owners turned their auto shop into a bar when the new Busch Stadium opened next door.
“We thought we’d be back in the spring,” co-owner Brenda Randall said.
But with spring came the coronavirus pandemic, upending nearly every aspect of American life, from office work, to air travel, and of course, baseball.
