The real problem with baseball

A lot of people point to the product on the field and complain that's the problem with baseball. Teams like the Pirates will never win while teams like the Yankees & Red Sox always seem to be in it. To me, that's not the biggest problem with baseball. This is...

New York Yankees slash premium prices by up to $1,250 - MLB - SI.com

Quote:
The remainder, 1,704 non-premium seats, will increase from $100 to $125.
Every price they mentioned in that article is priced for the rich and famous. I saw my first game at Yankee Stadium in 1975. If I was a kid growing up in NY now, I doubt I'd ever get a chance to see them in Yankee stadium with the prices listed there. The "real" fans of the game are forgotten.
