ALL Major League Players, umpires and team staff now must pay for the tickets.
EVERYONE must pay.
WHY, the IRS has informed MLB that the "free" tickets are to called INCOME and taxes must be paid.
So yet again, we are hit with, at least, incomplete information written in a way that it makes "the employer" look like the bad guy.

I knew it was the IRS mandating it. I was told this on the phone yesterday. I just didn't want to start a political thread here bashing the IRS. It's just too easy to do. MLB management still sucks.
What I DO want to know is: doesn't the IRS have bigger and better things to do than go after the little people who are getting these comped tickets (yes, it's the recipient who also must pay)? Ridiculous.
