Dodgers fans Jimmy Sweeney and Stuart Rawitt have gone online to organize a baseball boycott. Their for-profit organization -- Baseball Fans On Strike -- just established anInternet sitefor ordering a $20 membership kit, T-shirts, and baseball caps with the organization's logo. Members who pledge to boycott all 1995 major league baseball games get a newsletter, a travel gift certificate and a bumper sticker. Sweeney told TIME Daily that the boycott is for the entire season, even if thestrikeends, because he is angry that it has lasted so long. "We're boycotting regardless of who is playing," Sweeney said. "No matter if there are replacements, pros or even if they put sheep on the field."
