SAN DIEGO -- London is not calling for Major League Baseball next year.The players association says MLB has given up plans to play regular-season games in the English capital in 2017.Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said in January that his staff was working hard at playing in London, and MLB officials looked at the renovated Olympic Stadium as a possible venue.There was discussion about London early on, union head Tony Clark said Monday. Unfortunately there were a number of moving pieces related to London that shortened our window in an effort to try to find common ground on that happening, and we werent able to get it done in time.Clark also was noncommittal about having players on 25-man active rosters made available for the 2020 Olympics, which will be held in Tokyo from July 24 to Aug. 9. The International Olympic Committee executive board voted last month to support a six-nation tournament that year in both baseball and womens softball, and the full IOC is to vote in August.Baseball became a medal sport for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics but was dropped for the 2012 London Games and wont be played this year in Rio de Janeiro. In 2008, only those not on 25-man big league rosters as of late June were allowed to compete; the U.S. team included Jake Arrieta and Stephen Strasburg -- both All-Stars this year.Is there an appreciation for the value of having baseball in the Olympics? Yes, there is, Clark said. Is there an appreciation for the season and how or if it could work with our active players? Yeah, theres a conversation, but we run into the same roadblocks we always have.

ST. LOUIS -- Dave Ryan and Matthew Sughrue each won two matches Wednesday at Old Warson to reach the U.S. Senior Amateur final.The 62-year-old Ryan, from Taylorsville, Illinois, beat Michael Dunsmore of Poughkeepsie, New York, 5 and 3 in the quarterfinals and topped Tim Jackson of Germantown, Tennessee, 1 up in the semifinals.I dont know what to say. Im at a loss for words, Ryan said. To be honest with you, Im a little shocked. I was fortunate to beat him [Jackson] and Paul Simson [in the round of 16]. Those are two tough guys to take down.The 57-year-old Sughrue, from Arlington, Virginia, edged Doug Hanzel of Savannah, Georgia, 1 up in the quarterfinals and rallied to beat Kevin Cahill of Waukesha, Wisconsin, in 19 holes in the semifinals.Against Jackson, Ryan won the 14th hole to take a 2-up lead, lost the 15th with a bogey and matched Jackson with a par-birdie-par finish -- holing a 9-footer on 18 -- to close out the match.It was uphill and I just had to hit it, Ryan ssaid.dddddddddddd Fortunately, it went in.

Sughrue also rallied against Hanzel, winning 15 and 16 to take the lead and matching Hanzel with pars on the last two holes.The Hanzel match was a real grinder. It was a tough match against a great player, Sughrue said. We didnt play as well in this one, but on the back nine, we both kind of steadied -- and coming down the stretch, its not stroke play, its a matter of who wins the match.Sughrue left the insurance business after 25 years in 2008 to go to graduate school at Virginia Tech, and he is now a psychotherapist.
