The main issues that are outstanding are tiered wages, mandatory weekend work, and retirement security benefits.

"We're looking for fairness, equality and respect in this round of bargaining," said Gaurav Sharma, CUBGW President. "We're disappointed that even when we provide win-win solutions, Molson Coors won't accept them."

Coming off tense finishes against Memphis and Toronto, the Knicks led comfortably for much of the fourth quarter and moved back above .500 at 28-27.

  • Joey Votto, Jesse Winker hit homers as Reds beat Giants 3-0

    SAN FRANCISCO — Joey Votto splashed a home run into McCovey Cove beyond the right-field arcade, Jesse Winker hit a two-run homer, and the Cincinnati Reds beat the San Francisco Giants 3-0 on Monday night. Winker's first home run of the year marked the first hit off Aaron Sanchez in the third and provided left-hander Wade Miley (2-0) with some early support. Cincinnati bounced back after losing two straight — outscored 15-3 — at Arizona following a six-game winning streak. Miley allowed two hits in five innings. Tejay Antone then struck out five over 3 2/3 hitless innings before Lucas Sims recorded the final out for his first career save in Cincinnati's first shutout of the season. The Giants were shut out for the second time. The Reds snapped San Francisco's four-game winning streak and maintained a one-game lead in the NL Central over Milwaukee. Sanchez (0-1) allowed two runs and three hits in five innings in his home debut, facing the Reds for the first time in his career. Sanchez showed his delight with a great lunging stop by shortstop Brandon Crawford on a sharp grounder by Winker for the first out of the game. San Francisco starters have gone at least five innings and allowed three runs or fewer in all 10 games this season. It’s the Giants’ third-longest such streak to begin a season in the modern era. QUIET CROWD While the Giants have said they can accommodate approximately 8,900 fans at 22% of ballpark capacity, attendance was 3,662 on a cold spring evening. Giants third baseman Evan Longoria threw a ball into the bleachers before the top of the ninth. STRONG CONNECTION Reds manager David Bell spent one special season with San Francisco, in 2002 when the Giants lost to the wild-card Angels in seven games in the World Series. “I’ve never shied away from saying how much this team and organization and city has been a big part in my life,” Bell said before the game. “I only played one year here but it felt like I played a lifetime here. I think it was because of the team we had, the city, the fans. It was just a good year.” TRAINER'S ROOM Reds: INF Eugenio Suárez was hit on a hand by a pitch from Sanchez during the fourth inning but stayed in the game. Giants: RF Mike Yastrzemski had a planned rest day, and manager Gabe Kapler said he will work to get the regulars days off after this initial homestand. “I think you’re going to see him regularly in the lineup going forward,” Kapler said. Yastrzemski entered as a pinch hitter in the eighth. UP NEXT Cincinnati ace Luis Castillo (1-1, 6.97 ERA) pitches the middle game of the series opposite Giants opening-day starter and former Reds right-hander Kevin Gausman (0-0, 1.32 ERA). Cincinnati will see another one of its former pitchers when Johnny Cueto takes the mound for the Giants in the series finale Wednesday afternoon. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports Janie McCauley, The Associated Press
