Major league baseball to postpone all games through Sunday, two baseball team owners say.
Since Tuesday’s attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, baseball had wiped out six days of play. Thursday’s decision will raise the total of postponed games to 91, the most since nearly the entire final month of the 1918 season was canceled.
Baseball intends to make up all the games by extending the regular season, which had been scheduled to end Sept. 30. The games will be rescheduled for the week of Oct. 1.
