[情報] 球員工會聲明 (昨日停電延賽)

【球員工會聲明】

除媒體報導的「兩隊領隊及總教練均曾以安全為由建議延賽」外，多位球員也第一時間將狀況反映給工會，惟工會人員嘗試與聯盟現場人員溝通卻未獲任何回應。因此，選手們雖無法理解「為何在如此克難的處境、以及可能發生嚴重意外的風險下，聯盟會做此決策」，也僅得配合出賽。

球員工會自 2016 年推動全台球場總體檢，呼籲相關單位改善、保養球場設施，也無數次籲請聯盟改善二軍賽事的場地、比賽時間及勞動安全相關問題，本事件也凸顯規章制度及賽務決策流程有待精進。

工會建議聯盟可參考美國職棒模式，當遇場地因素需商議延賽或停賽時，讓選手代表加入參與討論、表達意見，並將選手健康及安全納入考量範疇 (見註解) 。亦以此聲明再次呼籲聯盟重視全體從業人員的勞動安全、把關職業規格底限，藉此機會調整相關制度，勿再讓類似事件重演。

註解：
一、MLB 規章規定，賽事安排、延後、停止或恢復，必須保障球員健康與安全。
【MAJOR LEAGUE RULES】 - 37 (b) POSTPONED AND SUSPENDED GAMES：
......The Commissioner or the Commissioner’s designee, after consultation
with officials of the home and visiting Clubs and, with regard to player
health and safety issues, the designee of the Major League Baseball Players
Association, shall determine whether, on account of weather or the conditionsof the playing field, a Wild Card, Division Series, League Championship
Series or World Series game shall be played or resumed or shall be suspended.

二、實務上，華盛頓郵報即曾報導國民隊及芝加哥小熊隊的比賽中，工會選手代表就延賽事宜參與溝通討論的過程。
【THE WASHINGTON POST】 - What was with that crazy rain delay Friday night atNationals Park?
......When the evening began, the MLB Players Association discussed options
with the player representatives from both teams. Sean Doolittle, not normallya Nationals player representative, served as one for the evening because Max
Scherzer was starting Saturday and knew he would leave the park early if the
delay dragged on.
Doolittle, Bryce Harper and Trea Turner spoke with the league and their Cubs
counterparts, Kris Bryant and Tommy La Stella, on numerous conference calls
and through group text messages.......
