⚾️On August 12, 1994 the Major League Baseball strike began. It resulted in the remainder of that season being canceled, including the postseason and, for the first time since 1904, the World Series. It was the 8th work stoppage in baseball history, as well as the 4th in-season work stoppage in a 22 year span. The strike was suspended on April 2, 1995, after 232 days, making it the longest such stoppage in MLB history and the longest work stoppage in major league professional sports at the time
