What is the motivation of the baseball players to play if their product is free?

I'm pretty sure the metaphor is supposed to have nothing with them all getting equal access to the game for free that they didn't pay for, it was just something interesting to put on the other side of a fence.
But now I'm realizing yeah they should have picked something better for them to be watching, haha.

This one's better, they're all looking at something free, a sunset.
The baseball one has a lot of other problems (tiered seated representing different levels of the free market for different benefits, advertiser-supported revenue, blah blah) that really just mucks up the metaphor.

Silly goose, the people in the stands are going to pay extra to compensate for the freeloaders.
