The nearly 200 total games wiped off the MLB slate so far this season represent the third-largest number of games lost to a work stoppage - surpassed only by the 713 cancellations in the 1981 strike and the 948 lost in the 1994-95 strike/lockout.
Sports Seriously: Mackenzie Salmon and Analis Bailey discuss yet another failed attempt to find an agreement on a new contract between MLB's players and owners.Major League Baseball canceled two more regular season series Wednesday as its lockout neared Day 100, and players, teams and fans were left to ponder a 2022 season minus at least a dozen games on their schedules.
