Major League Baseball (MLB) has two games scheduled for London Stadium this weekend, the league having “clearly identified the U.K. as a priority market,” as its Chief Operations and Strategy Officer tells the AP. This will be the third series of London games in five years, with more planned in 2026. There were plans to play next year in Paris, but MLB failed to find a promoter.
This year’s MLB world tour includes Mexico City, Seoul, Santo Domingo and London. The league says it has played more than 200 games abroad in 11 countries over the past 30 years.
