Fenway Park concession workers on strike for first time in 113 years

• Aramark staff walk out ahead of Red Sox-Dodgers series

• Union opposes self-serve kiosks, demands fair wages

• Fans urged to boycott concessions during homestand

Hundreds of Aramark workers at Fenway Park are on strike and planning to stay out for all of a homestand between the Boston Red Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers starting Friday night.

Concession workers had set a deadline of noon Friday for Aramark and Fenway Park to reach an agreement with the Local 26 chapter of the Massachusetts and Rhode Island hotel, casino, airport and food services workers union. The walkout, which union leaders say is the first in Fenway Park's 113-year history, follows more than a year of contract negotiations and months of escalating frustration over pay, job security and automation.
