Business Tips: Baseball Is Losing Popularity and Ratings – Phone Call With Sports Illustrated
Awesome Tip: Baseball Is Losing Popularity and Ratings – Phone Call With Sports Illustrated
Baseball is a dying sport and it is their own fault. It’s no surprise that kids today are more interested in Fortnite players than baseball players, solely based on distribution and availability to the content. Making decisions strictly for short term gains is the worst thing you can do for the longevity of a business.
Check out the article that I did with Sports Illustrated on the future of Baseball here:

He's 42? More like 52…..
mlb is losing popularity in the us. The future of baseball is international
Baseball is a yesteryear game. Over.
The game had changed coaches ain't coaching no more they're laying back and waiting for someone hit long ball. There no hit n run, sealing bases, squeeze play. Dam i miss Billy's Ball. Ricky's, Vince, sealing bases Wally Beckman drag bunt. Dam I am tried seeing base loaded no man out and nobody's score and 1st n 3rd with no out…..coaches allowing 8th and 9th swing bat ( K, then double play)
you should be the commissioner. for real
Lets be real…NOT ENOUGH AMERICAN BLACK PLAYERS! They gave the game some flare. All of the great black baseball players are retired or passed on. Now its nothing but a bunch of brads, chads & latin americans. BORING!!
to many foreigners …baseball becoming niche in america
Fortnite sucks now lmao
Baseball is not a dying sport. It is the second grossing sport in the entire world. NFL – 11 billion, MLB – 9 billion, NBA – 6 billion, Premier League – 5 billion, NHL 4 billion. Baseball still completely dominates NASCAR and XGames and other 'cooler' sports.
MLS right now might soon chew away that American family that goes out on summer days
i like this guy…he has a point, no bullshiet talking around, facts
u know what u.s. sports are missing also? a ultra fansector with bengals, flags and chants
thats what brings goosebumps athomsphere and why people want to be there live in a stadium, otherwise i could watch from home
bro u dont know hockey lol
I wanna say something. Gary, I don't believe baseball is a dying sport. The money they're making is insane. But the reason why there were so many baseball stars in the 80s and 90s is because of how they marketed themselves. I'm only 18. I want a Rickey Henderson, a Barry Bonds, an A-Rod, a Ken Griffey Jr., a Manny Ramirez. We got those guys when it comes to talent, not personality. We need a Rickey Henderson, Ken Griffey type personality back into America's pastime.
MLB attendance 2018 – 70 million, NHL attendance 2018 – 23 million, NBA attendance 2018 – 22 million, NFL attendance 2018 – 17 million

nobody wants 2 watch u
your not big when you have 48,086 views 1k.likes with 2 mil subs. dork
The game is slow and not really associated with culture at large. It doesnt relate to millenials because of that. NFL has sort of the same problem except for the mega stars like odell beckham.
Baseball is dying because it's boring as fuck and always has been. 97degrees,
100% humidity sitting in the sweltering sun to watch some idiot walk up
to a plate, knock dirt off their shoes 100 times, take a thousand
practice swings, knock some more dirt off their shoes, more practice
swings, the pitch, strike one then the whole process starts over again.
And no one can hand me that line of shit about psyching each other out
either. If you are that good to play at that level, you should be
beyond being "psyched out" due to training and experience not to mention
the enormous cash you are paid. I have spoken to millennials and they
all say that when they are "forced" to go to a game for one reason or
another, they all surf the internet, text, etc on ipads or iphones
because they are bored out of their minds and are gone by the 3rd
inning. I'm 56 years old and I have felt the same way since I went to
my first game. Now, here in Cincinnati, the reds "need" a new fucking
score board to the tune of 4 million dollars. For what? to show an
empty house? Bye Bye baseball!
Wht abt cricket . .. Americans?
You can't do anything with baseball being boring it's the game a few people will find it entertaining. In my eyes is like watching some group on the park playing their game with a board as the protagonist no pace just killing time
Only if the “good old boys” club would listen. Gary V for commissioner! How about a legitimate World Series played between the champions around the globe akin to the Champions League in fútbol. WBC opened the Americans eyes to how good the rest of the world actually is.
Baseball is dying?…but yet baseball cards are becoming huge again?
I'm English and I got into baseball recently thanks to its YouTube presence (which barely gets any views). But I also love cricket. And I love football (the soccer-kind) and like the NFL. Sports is not an either/or situation. You can like every single one of them.
Baseball isn’t “dying”. The main issue is too many games. 156 games of any sport would get bland.
I hate to say it but this is something nobody wants to mention. I believe that the high rate of Hispanic players, whose names are hard to spell and remember, are a part of the reason the MLB is losing interest among American fans. Names such as Gleyber Torres, Giancarlo Stanton, Yonder Alonso, Yolmer Sanchez, Yuli Gurriel, Asdrubal Guerrero, etc, don't exactly roll off the tongue. There have been great Hispanic players for many years, but many had names that people could pronounce without the help of a name card. Nobody else is saying it, so I will.
Problem is these guys are extremely private personalities. The guys who put themselves out there have and continue to do so. The baseball player and the basketball player personality are extremely different in nature. Ballplayers aren't mic'd up nowadays because they all talk like men. Which is to say the cursing on TV is supposedly not good for kids to hear. MLB may have dug their own grave but they are also falling into the pit of the PC culture. Just like wrestling. The attitude era fans will never love the new product where they freeze frame chair shots and aren't allowed to bleed.
Borrring.
If you were to help a MLB star player on youtube, what type of content would you create?
Ironic how popular baseball has gotten in East Asia, while the Ameri-mutts and their constantly falling IQ average think its boring. Enjoy your shitty CTE concussion American "Foot"ball then
Agree with Gary.
Baseball is a game of statistics and tradition…..beyond that, its a slow mediocre game that doesn't translate well in modern society
It's simple. NFL and NBA is just more exciting to watch. Constant plays, little downtime, one player can control the entire game. Ex, curry, LeBron, Brady. Whereas baseball there is a lot of downtime and the only activity is pitcher, batter,. It's not stimulating enough for the average viewer.
like to keep baseball Alive

Rob Manfred just came out acting dumbfounded why the ratings were so low for a high profile World Series like BOS vs LA. Everybody's attention is on the NFL and NBA!
I'm sure they've asked you, but you would be a great speaker at the Sloan Sports Analytics Conference.
MLB needs to make edited down games that cut out all the “in betweens” of the game that make it slow and boring.
Is this dude on drugs or something coz its seems like he has no chill.
I wouldn't say baseball is dying. I just looked at attendance and it peaked in 2012 and has decrease by about 2% in the past 4 years but it is far from dead.
Gary I noticed that you are on Weibo and WeChat. That’s not enough, you need to get on Bilibili ( think the YouTube of China), a company that announced its IPO on Nasdaq just March of this year. It has the top 17 traffic in China and some 50m users.You can’t ignore it! It’s better than Youku or iQiyi. Nobody posts anything original on those two platforms, all our content creators and vloggers are on Bilibili! Just have someone who speaks Chinese check out their website. It’s got streaming, games, and so much more that you can’t miss out on.
33 kills 967 left..
So true, the NFL adapted to having its content more easily available I mean hell you can watch a Thursday night game on Twitch for Christ sakes. Thats smart
The cool thing is. MLB is starting to notice us creators and even working with some of us here on youtube.
