The Red Sox season will stumble to its grim conclusion in New York on Wednesday but Ace Tickets owner Jim Holzman already knows how his business fared at Fenway Park this year.
It wasn’t pretty. The resale market for Sox tickets, normally among the hottest in Major League Baseball, went into a nose-dive as the team headed toward its worst finish in 46 years.

Let's call a spade a spade. Ace Ticket is nothing more than a legalized scalper, aided and abetted by the greedy Red Sox ownership. So shed no tears for Jim Holzman. In fact, a couple more years of abject Red Sox failure might put him and his likes out of business and we fans might be able to see a game without getting ripped off at every turn.
The Red Sox do not make money from the sale of Ace tickets. Could you explain how Red Sox ownership is aiding and abetting?
Things could be worse. Today's Chicago Tribune reports that tickets to today's and tomorrow's Cubs-Astros games at Wrigley Field are available on StubHub for less than $1.00.
I was hoping they would go bankrupt: If not for Sal DiMasi, the ticket re-sellers would not be re-selling event tickets at 200 -300% profit.
