It's Bud Selig's Fault. Everything's Bud Selig's Fault

It's not just the Tampa Bay Rays. Several of the teams in this year's pennant race are far from selling out the ballpark. Is it the economy? Is it the back-to-school timing? Most of the teams in the race have increased attendance and ticket sales, but, still, people made fun of the Rays' fans but Cincinnati had small crowds down the stretch, too. It's beyond whether Tampa Bay can draw. And, having bought tickets for a couple of games in Washington this week, I can tell you that between the tickets and parking and food and merch, it's already close to prohibitively expensive to take the family to a game.
