You come in here with a non baseball question and then call someone stupid for telling you so. What kind of jerk are you? You know what you can do with your 9/10ths!!

It was like that when I was a child (in the 1950s!) They do it for the same reason things are put on sale for $99.99 and not $100.03. You won't notice the extra $0.9 cent very often and it will look like it is actually cheaper than it is.
