We still don’t know if we’ll see the Chicago Cubs take the field in 2020. But we do know the World Baseball Classic will not be played until at least 2023.
While Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association are working toward putting a plan in motion for there to be a shortened baseball season in 2020, events in 2021 are being canceled or postponed. According to Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes, the fifth World Baseball Classic, which had been set to take place in March 2021 will not be played next year.
