Major League Baseball is certainly a global sport.

According to the latest report by the Chicago Tribune, the Cubs could be playing in London next season.

"Two people familiar with the discussions tell The Associated Press that Major League Baseball is considering one of two matchups for its 2020 series in London: New York Mets vs. Washington Nationals or Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals," the Chicago Tribune said.

Nothing is official yet.

"The people spoke on condition of anonymity Friday because no announcements had been authorized. An announcement is expected after opening day this year."

The Red Sox and the Yankees will play in London this season and the Athletics and Mariners will open the season in Tokyo.
