League Governance and Traditions

Major League Baseball proposed sweeping changes to its amateur selection process, aiming to implement an international draft while simultaneously restructuring the domestic draft format. These adjustments reflect the league's ongoing effort to standardize talent acquisition across global markets. Meanwhile, in Fairbanks, the centennial Midnight Sun Game continues its historic run, as teams take the field at 10 p.m. during the summer solstice. This unique Alaskan tradition persists as one of the sport's most distinct events, played under natural light for over 100 years.
