APNewsBreak: Cubs-Cards set for London on June 13-14 in 2020

St. Louis will be the home team for both games, according to a draft of the 2020 preliminary schedule obtained by The Associated Press.


''I've had experience traveling over there and the time difference is pretty dramatic, especially when you go that way,'' Cubs manager Joe Maddon said Wednesday. ''When you come back, you're always able to catch up, when you're going back in time as opposed to forward in time. I don't even know what to expect in something like that. You know your head's going to be swimming a little bit, you've got that brain fog, you just do.''


''It's going to be like nothing we've ever experienced, so I won't know until we get to it,'' he said.


''Once you get there, you're going to have a lot of adrenaline, you're going to probably be well enough to play those games and be excited and charged up,'' Maddon said. ''When you come back adrenaline's gone, and then you get back into this regular schedule, that would be the larger concern. But having said all that I think it's great. I'm a big fan of Europe. If jets could even become more efficient, I think it would be a great situation to have a team or teams over there. That would be really the kind of expansion you're looking for. But it would have to be a scheduling thing. It would have to be all kinds of considerations just based on jet lag because the brain fog will beat you up. ''
