Baseball's Popularity in Context is High ...


The Dying Throes Of Baseball

Toby Harrah joined the Rangers' television broadcast for the home opener, and he was asked to compare the sold-out atmosphere to the first home opener in Rangers' historyforty years ago.
Here's all you need to know: The attendance was 20,105. It was 5,517 for the next game -- again, that was a team in a major market playing its second home game ever. Remember that for the next time someone mentions something about how baseball is slipping in popularity.
