The next Major League’s baseball season is slated to open with a game between the Chicago Cubs and the New York Mets in Japan. Sammy Sosa will be the star of the show. A two-game series (29 and 30 March 2000) has been scheduled as part of the Major League baseball organization’s effort to make the Major League baseball championship a global event. Last year, the Major League season opened in Monterrey, Mexico with a match between the San Diego Padres and the Colorado Rockies.
