Text | The season ticket holders of the Milwaukee Club are much dissatisfied with the course of Manager Rogers in playing in other cities the games that ought to be played here. The manager claims that the average attendance he receives from this city will not pay expenses, and he proposes to play his club where he can make the most money. This may be eminently satisfactory to Mr. Rogers, and it may be a fine financial system, but it is questionable whether it is the square thing for the stockholders and season-ticket holders. It must not be forgotten that these gentlemen went down in their pockets at the beginning of the season and helped the club out of an awkward pecuniary difficulty, for which they received many thanks. But thanks cost nothing, and the ticket holders want to know if the club is to continue violating its contract in this manner., quoting an unidentified Milwaukee correspondent |
