AP: MLB To Announce Yankees-Red Sox Games In London
NEW YORK (AP) — A person familiar with the planning says Major League Baseball intends to announce next week that the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox will play two games at London's Olympic Stadium in June next year.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press on Thursday because no public comments have been authorized.
The 2019 games are set for June 29-30. These will be the first regular-season MLB games in Europe. The Red Sox will be the home team for both games.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan scheduled a news conference for Tuesday with baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred but did not announce the subject matter.
