Western Canadian Baseball League cancels 2020 season
LETHBRIDGE, AB – After much speculation the Western Canadian Baseball League (WCBL) has finally pulled the plug on its 2020 season.
The decision was announced in a media release sent out late Wednesday night.
At an emergency meeting of the league’s board of governors, an unanimous vote was held to cancel the entirety of the upcoming summer season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The WCBL had previously pushed back the start date of the 2020 season to late June or early July as the timeline for opening pitch in May was deemed unfeasible last month.
