概要

In August 1994, MLB players walked out. The World Series was cancelled for the first time since 1904. They didn’t come back until April 1995.
The strike ended not with an agreement but with a court order. A federal judge named Sonia Sotomayor restored the pre-strike terms and allowed the season to start. The parties eventually signed a new CBA in November 1996.

There was no salary cap in it.

The owners had spent two years, cancelled a World Series, damaged the sport’s relationship with its fans, and did not get the central thing they said they needed.

Tomorrow’s issue covers the history of MLB work stoppages and makes the case that 1994 wasn’t actually resolved. It was postponed.

The owners are back at the table in 2026 asking for a salary cap. The players are back at the table saying they won’t discuss it.

Thirty-two years. Same argument. Different dollar amounts.
