401 Bob RyanI lived in Hartwick, NY for 22 years and used to hitchhike to Cooperstown to catch foul balls in the parking lot during the Hall of Fame game. It would be a shame to have this tradition cancelled.
402 Nancy AustinOne game, one day at Doubleday, forever !
403 ROBERT O'BRIENSAVE THE GAME!!!!

405 rosemary dicieduePlease save the Hall of Fame Game. As we watch so many parts of American Culture eroding I fear to see this become cone more casualty. As a child spending summers in Cooperstown the HAll of Fame Game and BAseball ingeneral have remained a part of my life. I know it means a lot to others as well. I have shared this e-mail address with others asking them to support the Hall of Fame Game. Share my e-mail with the Powers That Be. MAybe they will take action and save this time-honored aspect of American life. MAye the HAll of Fame Game remain a part of American life and the joys of many Basebal Lovers for decades to come. Rosemary Diciedue
406 Rodney CornishCooperstown is the birthplace of baseball,and home to the hall of fame,this game just belongs here it's not fair to the fans, and residents of this town.With all the money flowing around basebal these days i dont see why these teams can't suck it up one day and play for the fans and not the money

408 Maureen O'Neill FellowsGrowing up in Cooperstown I saw the magic that the Hall of Fame Game brought to our village. In that one miraculously day ambitious HS Senior class trips were paid for, lemonade stand profits filled piggybanks, backyards turned into parking lots with proceeds going to College funds, we would meet the greats of The Game year after year and we were undeniably a part of history. Don't make that magic disappear.
409 Anonymoussave the game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
410 Erik hahnOne of the decisions for my family to move to Cooperstown area was the attraction of baseball, without it, it's just another town. Please reconsider!

413 Kevin StevensThis is a matter of MLB showing respect to the HOF. If MLB can't commit to sending two teams to one exhibition game in cooperstown, I'm not sure that they deserve the $100 per ticket per game I spend to see the red soxs. It is said to see a working class family spending that amount of money to see a baseball game and the muli-billion dollar baseball league can't give back a little to the a town and community that does nothing more that promote the integrety of the game.

433 Elizabeth PuglieseRemoving a game that is about honoring the game in the name of economics is not the way to improve baseball's image.

441 AnonymousMLB said no exhibition games after the season starts. What about Boston starting the season in Japan(ugh) and playing a game in Califorina with the LA Dodgers the other day Hello????????????????
442 Tim McCart
443 Melissa BishopThe game MUST go on! I visited Cooperstown last summer and plan to visit again this year. The Fame Game is good for the area, good for baseball and good for New York State tourism. Play Ball!!
