Description

When major league baseball cancelled its 1994 season following a player strike, fans were shocked that the national pastime could be brought to a standstill by a collective bargaining dispute.

The strike was largely responsible for bringing the economics of the game into sports discussions and raising questions about the business of baseball.

Will players' rising salaries destroy baseball? How will revenue-sharing and luxury taxes affect competitive balance?

Should taxpayers subsidize their local team? This volume answers the basic questions about the economics of the sport, from salary arbitration to baseball's antitrust exemption, in a clear style geared for readers with no formal background in economics.
