Kevin Gorman’s interview “Pirates GM Ben Cherington: Winning games best way to draw fans back to ballpark” (Oct. 5, TribLIVE) relating winning and attendance, is the same old claptrap, year after year, with the Pirates.
Face it: The whole problem with the Pirates is that the Nuttings are greedy; they trade away good players and raise ticket prices every year. Perennial losers! They absolutely don’t care if the Pirates ever have a winning season again, as long as they make a profit. I’m surprised they haven’t as yet marketed the team to an out-of-town buyer.
