Subscription Baseball

by Stephen Jones

So many different subscription services,
Left, right and center,
As I try to follow my team this year.

Baseball’s become more complicated,
And more expensive, too,
Even for someone relaxing at home.

There’s a big problem in all of this.
How is it, now, that America’s pastime—
Its looked-forward-to leisure of summer—

Has evolved like an apocalyptic survivor,
Transformed into MLB’s frenetic cash cow?
