How It Started
In 2023, the average MLB ticket price crossed $100. Parking, food, and a couple of sodas turned a family outing into a $400 day. For millions of fans — the ones who grew up with baseball, who passed the love of the game down through generations — that door quietly closed.
A group of fans in Chicago started meeting in a church basement to talk about it. Not to complain. To organize. They believed that if enough fans spoke with one voice, MLB commissioners, team owners, and the Players Association would have to listen.
That group became the Baseball Fan Association. Today we represent fans in all 30 MLB markets, and our membership is growing every day.
