The D'Backs stat is typical of Arizona sports fans in general.... fans love the winner. And the +62% is probably more due to the HORRIBLE attendance the year before, coming off several years of awful baseball.

Arizona hates hockey

When you're trying to sell a AAA team to the fans instead of a major league team. People aren't going to come. They owner complains constantly about the ball park. But is in the bottom half in the payroll department. Finally he stepped up the payroll. Only after they got hot at the end of last season. If they don't do good this year, they'll go back to the cheap.

[@BigHermAZ]

@@DavidKroff 100% correct!

[@michaelbaucom4019]

The Nationals?! Well, some would argue they had nowhere to go but up

[@ktbeatty]

Dodgers attendance is really misleading (Padres too) because for some stupid reason MLB counted the two games in South Korea, in a stadium that held less than most NBA arenas, as 1 home game each for the Dodgers and the Padres. 18,000 will dent your attendance numbers for home games when you normally average close to 50,000.

[@Luke.Cooking]

Also, early rain delayed games hurt a weekend series.

[@theways07]

Yea totally. Dunno why they did a Korea series as opposed to a Japan series. There are better seating and bigger fan base in Japan where they could have sold more tickets too.

[@GeraldM_inNC]

Off topic, but have you noticed how well the A's are playing? Some of the prospects they received when they traded away all their stars are beginning to have an impact.

[@tomace9767]

But how does this all relate to Building 7

[@77D777]

He’s obviously a sports fan

[@jamesroof6150]

Building 7 was taken out by MLB

[@TheBronxBunnyMan]

Yet, for the first two games this weekend against the Phillies, attendance was around 15,000 because a bunch of Phillies fans were apparently vacationing for the weekend. For the last game of the series, today, the attendance was 13,001.

[@bradjtrains]

With the Orioles, new ownership makes a huge difference., granted the new group took over on opening day. We are optimistic about the future and now want to support the team and its renaissance. For a long time, we'd roll our eyes at anything that remotely would give the Angelos family any money at all. So far so good with Rubensplash!

[@burkee985]

I think the Nats are doing $5 tickets for DC residents

[@gocubs1815]

I was just at the Red game last week, they put my Tigers fans to shame with how they showed up on a Saturday night home game..easily 10k people lined up before doors even opened!

[@RoadTripTelevision]

It would be really sad if the Phoenix metropolitan area loses the DiamondBacks and moves out of J.P.MorganChase & Company Field after the NHL's Coyotes left for Salt Lake City, Utah and the Delta Air Lines, Inc. Center. ☹️

[@potluck5896]

Diamondbacks isn't cause of the WS, it's cause of the beekeeper

[@joeylawn36111]

Surprised that the Phillies are actually down in attendance. Must be because of early-season cold weather, because right now, they have the best record in Baseball....

[@skyclaw36]

They've had quite a few rain games

[@__jack________________2225]

Feels like playoffs atmosphere always at CBP.The game last night against the Mets was almost full house.

[@rayspooner1982]

I hope Baltimore doesn't do anything janky like Cleveland did. This teams need to figure out "why did we used to sell out every night and now nobody shows up" is it price, does the team suck, is the atmosphere at the park not fun? Figure it out instead of chopping your stadium to pieces.

[@williamb.8762]

I think the two biggest issues are the crime rate and the fact it was easier to pull fans from the DC area before 2005. They had some years where they were pretty bad and still had very good attendance. While the crime in the city has decreased recently, probably due to decreasing city population, the murder rate was still super high throughout much of the 2010's. Last year it was down to where it was in the 90's, which is horrible but still good by our standards.

[@Chi2-Ind2]

“Paul Goldschmidt has been horrible” Then, hits a home run and gets an rbi single on Mother’s Day

[@scorejason]

[@mbd501]

The Nationals are up because they have a .500 team this year with a good young nucleus, which is a big improvement over the losing teams they had from 2020-2023.

[@BienSwinginbase]

Dodgers and Yankees are always have attendance and all that stuff bossman.

[@CubeAtlantic]

i haven't watched the Blue Jays & baseball in a minute I think their attendance are boosting-up it seems.

[@joet7940]

Giants attendance is coming back because Gabe Kapler is gone, he was not liked by the fans for a number of reasons.

[@lovesgucci1]

The only reason the Nationals attendance isn’t similar to the A’s is because there’s a ton of away fans that attend

[@Luke.Cooking]

Yup, they hosted the Dodgers

[@DavidKroff]

No one wants to pay for major league baseball to watch a AAA team. The Diamondbacks haven't been competitive for years. Ken Kendrick's cares more about baseball cards than his team winning. If you put a piece of crap on the field people will find something else to do.
