  • Gone: Minor League Baseball Franchise Relocations in the Northeast
    PROCEEDINGS - AAG MIDDLE STATES DIVISION· VOL. 21, 1988 GOING, GOING~ GONE: MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL FRANCHISE RELOCATIONS IN THE NORTHEAST Jonathan I. Leib Syracuse University Department of Geography Syracuse, NY 13244 Within the past five years a number of cities in the northeast have explored the possibility of building baseball parks in order to attract minor league baseball franchises. In New York State, Binghamton, Buffalo, and Brooklyn have examined the economic feasibility of building their own stadia. Such studies have also be carried out in Scranton, Pennsylvania; Springfield, Massachusetts; and Wilmington, Delaware. The main public sector expense involved in trying to attract a minor league baseball franchise is the building and maintenance of a baseball stadium. However, Okner argues that stadia and arenas occupied by major league franchises do not generally operate at a profit. 1 Rees, Greytak, and Leib make the same argument for minor league ballparks.2 One reason why minor league stadia do not generally operate at a profit is that attendance at games is substantially lower than in the major leagues. In 1988, for example, the average major league team drew over two million fans. At the highest level of the minor leagues (AAA classification) the average team drew just under 320,000 spectators, while at the middle level (AA classification), the average team drew about 150,000 fans. 3 Given the possible low return from attendance receipts, it is not surprising that a city government may hesitate to build an expensive stadium. Although a stadium that is intended for a minor league team generally loses money, a baseball franchise does bring benefits to a community.
