Baseball is returning to the Olympics in 2020. The question now is who will be playing.
With the Summer Games falling in the middle of the major league season, the sport has never been able to produce the kind of best-against-best spectacle that Olympic hockey and basketball have. But even if that remains the case, there will undoubtedly be some big names taking the field at the Tokyo Games of 2020.
It just might take a few years before baseball fans really know them.
Baseball was a full medal event at the Olympics from 1992-2008, and it was a demonstration sport before that.
