Text | [from an interview of Secretary Scandrett of the Pittsburgh Club] The way in which players talk about the profits of ball clubs is absurd. I estimate that Boston clears $80,000, New York 60,000, Chicago $40,000 and Philadelphia about $10,000. The other clubs, on an average, are losers. Well, then, the profits named make a total of $190,000. Messrs. Ward, Keefe and others may know all about playing ball, but depend upon it they have little idea of the financial department of the club, and that is the most vital after all. |
