From the Sun-Times:
Cue the attendance jokes
The Sox’ final homestand of the season last weekend put their 2025 home attendance total at 1,445,738.
That’s an increase of almost 5% from their historically bad 2024 season, when they drew 1,380,733 to 35th and Shields, the lowest total since 1999.
But this year’s modest increase in Rate Field crowds still marks their second-lowest non-COVID season attendance this century, and promises to keep them among MLB’s cellar dwellers.
The Sox last cracked 2 million paying customers — a decent barometer for the American League average — in 2022.
