Key Points:
- MoMo’s, a popular bar near Oracle Park, will be closed to the public on Wednesday for a private Netflix event celebrating MLB’s opening night broadcast featuring the Giants and Yankees.
- Netflix transformed the bar with podcast booths, fake hedges, and a replica dugout as part of its first foray into baseball broadcasting, with executives and some stars attending.
- Owner Scott Morton acknowledged the tough decision to close MoMo’s to loyal Giants fans but viewed the event as a unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
- The event was arranged by Swisher Productions, selecting MoMo’s for its proximity to the ballpark, and the bar will return to normal operations for the weekend games.
- This marks the first Giants opening night game at Oracle Park, with traditional fan celebrations planned for Friday and Saturday’s day games.
