    Monopoly and Monopsony Power in a Market for Mud

    Monopoly and Monopsony Power in a Market for Mud This article describes an unusual market I use in my intermediate microeconomics courses to illustrate characteristics of monopoly and monopsony power. For over sixty years the Lena Blackburne Rubbing Mud (LBRM) company has been the sole supplier of mud taken from a Delaware River tributary that is applied to all baseballs used by Major League Baseball (MLB) teams. The unique quality of the mud removes the shine and slickness of new baseballs. Students must explain why LBRM is or is not a monopoly and recognize the source of MLB’s monopsony power. Edward Scahill† †University of Scranton © 2020 Journal of Economics Teaching. All rights reserved. Scahill / Journal of Economics Teaching (2020) 1. Introduction A monopoly is an enterprise that is the only seller of a good or service… Before and during the period of the classical economics (roughly 1776–1850), most people believed that… [the] only monopolies that could persist… were those that got the government to exclude rivals… Even today, most important enduring monopolies or near monopolies in the United States rest on government policies…Monopolies that exist independent of government support are likely to be due to smallness of markets (the only druggist in town) or to rest on temporary leadership in innovation…(Stigler) Although most students in my intermediate economics courses understand the graphical analysis of monopoly and the impact of monopoly power on economic welfare, it is a challenge to find actual examples of monopoly power that engage their interest.1 Although dominant firms in many markets have some degree of monopoly power, the number of “pure” monopolies – sole providers of a good or service that have no close substitutes - are rare.

  • Lena Blackburne's Baseball Rubbing Mud

    Lena Blackburne's Baseball Rubbing Mud

    Lena Blackburne's Baseball Rubbing Mud Lena Blackburne's Baseball Rubbing Mud: balm to ball players everywhere. Back in 1938, a Philadelphia Athletics coach named Lena Blackburne began mixing various batches of mud and water to create a substance that would dull the surface of glossy new baseballs, making them easier to grip. And, of course, it had to work without breaking the rules of baseball. Umpires had previously tried shoe polish, tobacco juice and the dirt beneath their feet to fix the balls, but while these substances did, indeed, dull the balls' surfaces, they also damaged the baseballs in the process. Blackburne's eventual concoction -- crafted from rich mud found in southern New Jersey near the Delaware River (at his favorite fishing hole, to be exact) -- didn't wreck the balls. The Athletics' chief umpire gave it a thumbs-up, and soon other American League teams began clamoring for some. National League teams followed suit, and soon Lena Blackburne's Rubbing Mud was famous Since Blackburne had no kids to inherit his business, he passed it on to a childhood friend, whose grandson, Jim Bintliff, now runs the company. Bintliff says every Major League Baseball team uses the product today, and he makes five or six trips to the mud hole annually to fulfill demand. But he won't say exactly where the revered mud hole is. "The mud is on public land, but we've always kept the location a secret to keep people from trampling it" Joy in Mudville MLB teams can't get enough of Lena Blackburne's secret substance.
