There have been four major events that caused shortened seasons in Major League Baseball history. In this episode, Andrew goes through the reasons for them and how it impacted the Yankees and other teams around the league – from the 1918-19 seasons being affected by WW1, to the first players’ strike in 1972, the 1981 split season, and the infamous 1994-95 strike. All 2020 events dates are currently TBD.
