Just like any other team going through the rebuilds, it will go up again when they start winning. Except Tampa, they never have good attendance.

Well TB and SAC are capped by their current minor league facilities.

Miami might actually be the biggest struggle of them all right now...except for WBC crowds when Latin American teams play.  Or Ohtani.

If Camden Yards, consecutive playoff appearances, young lineup of position prospects, new ownership cash injection, Yale GM AND the Inner Harbor/National Aquarium don't work to draw fans to Baltimore games...why would GRate Field be viable in Chicago as a draw?

Through 21 home games

2024  291,072=16,171 per game      + 52819=343,891  (16,376 per game)

2025  289,872=16,104 per game      +60061=349,933  (16,633 per game)

 

1.8% attendance increase through 21 home games

 

That's a little bit skewed because the next 2024 attendance mark is 26,152 for a SAT game we lost to Triston McKenzie...there's also a DH that avoided one day's low/er attendance (KC Royals WED April 17th, barely 10,000 in attendance)

BUMP

 

I don't think ANYONE would have predicted this...

Pretty decent set of promotions this year, especially considering the cash/budget crunch and difficulty attracting sponsors.

Wasn't there a rainout or two by this point last year?

At least two...so i just counted them as ONE gate (not split DH's), since they only announced one attendance figure for two games.

I guess if we "added" two more games into the figure, the AVERAGE will still be less in 2025 but overall attendance actually higher still.
