Why would anyone want to support the ludicrous financial structure of major league baseball?
High ticket prices.
Outrageous concessions prices.
Very low entertainment value, unless and until your team is in the pennant race/playoffs.
Then, limited value for really excelling during the year, it's back to one series knockouts.

Baseball used to be a pastime.  When the Expos were a young team, the bleachers were a buck.  Box seats were $5 or $6.  You could go to a game without deciding if the family got to eat that week.  Then came the greed.  Cyclical greed.  Setting new levels of excess with every cycle.

Watch an occasional game on TV.  You'll get all the available value of today's game.  The Bautista affair should show you, unless you're stupid, that the players you cheer don't give a rat's behind about you.  They only "represent" you and your city if you're delusional.

It's what George Orwell called soma.  Cathall Kelly pushes the stuff.
