Before the activity on the diamond resumes this Friday, Major League Baseball took advantage of the last day of the break for the All-Star Game 2023 to launch the schedule for the 2024 season.
While Commissioner Rob Mandred’s office announced Wednesday afternoon that the upcoming season will kick off in Seoul with a series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres on March 20-21, the full picture was revealed today.
The best baseball in the world will take its MLB WORLD TOUR to four different countries outside of the United States and Canada throughout 2024.
