  17. <p>Strike ends 1994 Season, Kills Playoffs and World Series
  18. </p>
  19. <p>     Acting Major League Baseball Commissioner Alan H. (Bud) 
  20. Selig announced the end of the 1994 baseball season at a Sept. 
  21. 14, 1994, press conference in Milkaukee, WI. The players had 
  22. gone on strike after the games of Aug. 11 over owner plans to 
  23. impose a salary cap. Intermittent negotiations between the two 
  24. sides served only to underline the difference in their positions.
  25. </p>
  26. <p>     The strike was the eighth work stoppage in 22 years, but 
  27. it was the first to result in the cancellation of the full 
  28. remainder of the season and the postseason. It marked the first 
  29. time since 1904 that there would be no World Series. The strike 
  30. ended a promising season in which a number of historic records 
  31. might have fallen. Matt Williams was the closest of several 
  32. players within striking distance of Roger Maris's record 61 home 
  33. runs in a season. Tony Gwynn was hitting just below .400, and 
  34. Frank Thomas and Albert Belle were contending for a possible AL 
  35. Triple Crown (best in home runs, runs batted in, and batting 
  36. average). Just over two-thirds of the scheduled 162 games were 
  37. played. League leaders and award winners are marked with an 
  38. asterisk (*) to denote the shortened season.
