Yer Out! No Baseball, Softball for 2012
TURIN, Italy – They’re out! Baseball and softball won’t be played at the 2012 London Olympics. And this time, the call stands.
Baseball and women’s softball remain on the program for the 2008 Beijing Games, and will be eligible to reapply for readmission to the 2016 games.
London, however, is no longer possible.
“We will work with them at the Olympic Games at Beijing and see if there’s a chance to come back in the program” after London, IOC president Jacques Rogge said. “I understand the disappointment of those who pleaded for the reinstatement.”
