Baltimore cracked a new national ranking of the best cities for sports business — but was far from the top of the list. The city claimed the 40th spot out of 50 on the Sports Business Journal’s best sports business cities list thanks to its strong lacrosse presence and many sponsorship companies. Baltimore’s two professional sports teams form a solid foundation for the city’s sports business industry, but new events like the CIAA Tournament and Maryland Cycling Classic have also helped the city raise its reputation. Local companies that like to spend on sports sponsorships also helped boost Baltimore in the ranking.
