Major League Baseball has canceled plans to play regular-season games in Paris in 2025 after failing to find a promoter, according to The Associated Press.
MLB and the players’ association agreed to the Paris games in their March 2022 labor deal and incorporated them as an attachment to the collective bargaining agreement. Two people familiar with the decision said it became apparent in recent months that no progress was being made to make the games work financially.
