MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred made the announcement on Friday ahead of this year's London Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs.
"We think our game is at its best when we have traditional rivals playing, and we want to show the fans here in London the very best form of baseball," Manfred said in a statement.
This will be the MLB's third series in London.

It will be the Phillies' first international game, but the fourth for the Mets who have played in Mexico, Japan and Puerto Rico.
"Major League Baseball has done an excellent job of expanding its footprint internationally and we are honored to play a role in that effort as part of the 2024 London Series," said Phillies Managing Partner and CEO John Middleton. "This will be a wonderful opportunity to showcase our players' talents and highlight the excitement that comes with a Phillies-Mets matchup for our fans in the UK and for those who have never attended a baseball game."
The Phillies host the Mets for a three-game series at Citizen Bank Park this weekend.
