RIPPA Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 The White Sox announced that yesterday's attendance was 10,377 The Tampa Bay Tribune (since the Sox where playing the Rays) said the official number of people who actually attended with their ticket was... 974 If you don't count the no crowd game in Baltimore a few years ago (due to the riots) than it is the lowest attended game since 1997... which was almost 21 years to the date in Comisky! Maybe stop having home games in Chicago in April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to a game there in September 2011 when they announced 21,000+... there were maybe 1000 people there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Funnily enough there was just a story about that on that topic http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2018/04/11/marlins-attendance-is-bad-but-at-least-theyre-being-honest-about-it/ Basically - the Marlins are changing the way they report attendance so it won't be as inflated anymore But beyond like the last year or two - people are going to have to go back and count by hand for it to be accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I like how it seems every baseball fight now starts with the pitcher whipping his glove at someone, all I see in my mind is a guy throwing a man-purse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 If I was in the bullpen for either the Red Sox or the Yankees, I'd be cranky that I had to run in for that soft nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Even for the embarrassing New York sports media the hot takes about Stanton being a flop and failure after a whole 12 games are lunacy. Joel Sherman is to baseball what Steve Simmonds is to hockey: pure dogshit in human form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirFozzie Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 And... yanks sox are back to scrumming it up. Not surprising, mind you, after that "Hey, is that your leg? Let me spike it for you" slide didn't get punished, we knew the Unwritten Rules would be in effect, and while the Price is Right for Plinko, the time was right for Austin to get Plunko.

SirFozzie Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Shining Wizzzzarrrrrdd! Actually, I think the best/worst way to make sure you get your shot at the pitcher is to preemptively take out the catcher. The funny thing is after the pitcher NOPE'd out of it, Alcantra has a couple seconds to look around, and think "Maybe this wasn't such a great idea.." before both teams basically arrive to the fight on top of him.

RIPPA Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Yanks/Tigers rained out That is the 4th Detroit postponement this year... all at home It's not even April 15 yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serious Darius Bagfelt Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 On 10/04/2018 at 11:12 PM, Death From Above said: Very early season, but the Jays finding ways to win a couple games they could have very easily lost is good to see. The bullpen is scary, Grichuk can't buy a hit and Stroman hasn't found his game yet but at least this year they have real live backups and guys at AAA that can contribute.
