Default Re: You get what you pay for: the AL/NL discrepancy

KBZ -

c'mon now. Yankee Stadium was a half-empty dump in the Bronx in the late 80s and early 90s, now it's packed from May onwards. It's because the possibility is there of creating a huge buzz for baseball in these cities - whereas in a lot of places, you just aren't going to get that kind of solidarity. I don't think you can attribute it to 'past front offices' - this goes back 60, 70, 80 years - there were two teams in Boston for a reason.
