Opening Day baseball canceled as MLB fails to reach deal with players union to end lockout.
Opening Day of Major League Baseball's regular season cannot happen as scheduled, officials said Tuesday, as management's lockout of players finished its third month with no deal in sight.
"The calendar dictates that we're not going to be able to play the first two series of the regular season and those games are officially canceled," Manfred told reporters Tuesday. "The clubs and our owners fully understand just how important it is to our millions of fans that we get the game on the field as soon as possible," Manfred said."To that end we want to bargain and we want an agreement with the player’s association as quickly as possible."
In a statement, the union described Tuesday's events as the"culmination of a decades-long attempt by owners to break our player fraternity. As in the past, this effort will fail."
