Mike De Wine (ed.). Hearing on the growing revenue disparity among teams in Major League Baseball (MLB), which is creating a sport of haves & have-nots, a sport where teams with the biggest bucks can buy the best players & control the game. Unless baseball addresses these increasing income inequities, America’s pastime will simply no longer exist. Witnesses: Bob Costas, Sportscaster, NBC; Rodney Fort, Prof. of Econ., College of Bus. & Econ., Wash. State Univ.; George Mitchell, Former Senate Majority Leader, & Independent Member, Commissioner’s Blue Ribbon Panel on Baseball Economics (CBRPBE); Allan H. “Bud” Selig, Comm. of MLB; Frank Stadulis, Pres. & CEO, United Sports Fans of Amer.; & George Will, Columnist, Wash. Post, & Member, CBRPBE.
