Their stadium holds at least 9000 less now. Plus they just added more seats two or three years ago.

Ha! Ha! You are all so funny. Seriously though 455 sellouts is alot. Boston will pass it in the next two seasons, but their stadium although a National Landmark is tiny to say the least. I know im a homer, but I learned it from Tom Hamilton!

Yeah at 85,000 capacity I dont think any team would have any consecutive sell outs.

Cleveland had a record 455 sellouts. Do you mean to tell me that Boston will pass THAT record? If the Indians were concerned about it, they'd revamp Jacobs Field and since they are not that says they don't really care.

Of course its fair. It is a testimate to the success of the Boston franchise. If Cleveland would consist field a competitive team, then they'd sell all the time too. Also the stadium reference is not relevant. After all if Cleveland still played in their old stadium, then they wouldn't have had very many consecutive sell outs.

The Red Sox have a small stadium and a lot of fans, they should sell out every game. By the way, the Red Sox were only 11th out of 30 teams in total home attendance this year.

Cleveland still did not get that many fans before their new stadium.
They built the stadium because they wanted the fans to come to the ballpark.
It is fair, you try selling obstructed view seats to people from Cleveland

Fair? You'd figure that the Indians would have more revenue due to having more seats to sell, but they don't. That's what you should be complaining about.
Don't like it? Tell them to remove half of the seats at Jacobs field.
People in Boston would pay insane amounts of money for season tickets if Fenway could hold another 10,000 people. (they already do pay insane amounts for them) I'm confident that they'd sell out all of those, too.

It is completely unfair. Boston should turn away customers so as to avoid this injustice.

They probably will pass it. If they had 9,000 more seats I wouldn't be so sure, but they don't so they will.
