Why do bass clarinets play in orchestras?

Bass clarinets play in orchestras because orchestras sometimes play pieces that are scored for bass clarinet, or have bass clarinet parts in it. One example of a piece like that is The Rite Of Spring, by Igor Stravinsky. It has significant solos and duets by the bass clarinet, and "the show cannot go on" without the bass clarinet. But most pieces, do not have bass clarinet parts, so the bass clarinet is rarely seen in orchestras today.
