Nor do you get to see Bellisario do his Rocky Balboa impression every day. That should account for a nice suspension. Hopefully, they are less harsh with Puig, but I suspect he'll be sitting a couple of days as well.

A tail of two teams:

Moonie Jr. is thinking about going to a Cleveland Indians game this weekend.
So I checked on Stubhub. The cheapest bleacher seat is $23.00

For a Dodgers game the cheapest bleacher seat goes for around $6.00
$23.00 will get you an infield reserve seat.

Cleveland is #30 in attendance (out of 30)
Dodgers are #1

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Not.

It makes perfect sense.

1. If Cleveland's attendance is that much lower, they ain't going to meet their per-game income needs without charging more per ticket.

2. If their attendance is that much lower, they aren't going to make it up in merchandising.

3. Dodger Stadium was built in '62 on land purchased from the government on the cheap (due to an abandoned housing development project). Total cost ~$23 million. Progessive Field was built 20 years ago for $175 million (~50% more accounting for inflation), $91 million out of pocket for the owners, and is probably still being paid off.

4. The Dodgers inked a $7 billion TV contract. The Indians broadcast rights were sold for ~$235 million.

And so on.

The Dodgers don't make their money by selling bleacher seats. The Indians do.

A six dollar bleacher ticket allows the Dodger fan to save his money for things that matter.

Beer and bail.

Beer in the bleachers at Cleveland.

Hopefully for substantially more than ten cents.

Moonie Jr decided it was too expensive and skipped the game.

Total revenue for Cleveland? $0.00

Makes perfect sense.

Makes perfect sense. I believe if the Indians don't draw at least 800,000 fans, they can repudiate their lease and move the team.
