Major League Baseball has rejected the MLB Players' Association's offer of a 114-game schedule, putting the ball back in the players' court as the sides aim to salvage some semblance of a 2020 season.
Wednesday morning, right around the time the NBA Board of Governors scheduled a call to rubber-stamp the resumption of their season, MLB informed the union it would not accept their offer of a regular season that would extend almost into November while paying the players pro-rated portions of their salary, a person with direct knowledge of the negotiations confirmed to USA TODAY Sports.
