The city of Pawtucket is suing the owners of the Pawtucket Red Sox for allegedly failing to repair and maintain the baseball stadium where the team played as they were obligated to do under a contract.

The Providence Journal reports the city sued the owners of the PawSox for failing to maintain the city-owned McCoy Stadium in a lawsuit filed Jan. 7.

The suit does not specify the amount of damages sought.

The PawSox are moving to Worcester, Massachusetts, and are scheduled to start playing there later this year.

A spokesperson for the team told the newspaper they were reviewing the lawsuit and considering a response.
