Baseball strike halts season as talks resume today
Negotiators plan to begin talks at noon after players walked out prompting the first bar gaining talks since Wednesday. The strike cancels all games in both leagues and threatens the final 52 days and 669 games of the regular season with a World Series at risk for the first time since 1904. Brewers owner Bud Selig and others voice anguish while Donald Fehr says players feel resigned and resentful as owners push for a salary cap.
