True, but there is plenty of competition for the entertainment dollar and baseball is no longer king. Once the fan moves on it will will be difficult to get the fan back. So wait until attendance is down and then wonder why the fan left. If players take a few minutes out of each day and sign for kids, they likely make a fan for life. That fan will attend games throughout their lifetime. The sport that takes care of the fan, appreciates the fan and understands the fan will likely never have a problem with having enough fans to support the sport.
