The 1990 Major League Baseball lockout was the seventh work stoppage in baseball and, at the time, the second-longest since 1972.^[1] Beginning in February, the lockout lasted 32 days, virtually wiping out spring training, moving Opening Day back a week to April 9 and extending the season three days to accommodate the normal 162-game schedule.
