re: Why are MLB games often played in the afternoon on week days?

Median age? IE half are older, half are younger than 55? I'm gonna need to see some support for that.

ETA: Even if that were true, the comment that said they play day games because their audience is retired is laughably moronic. Outside of the Cubs, i'm not sure how "often" weekday day games are played outside of the open week, maybe a handful (10-12 over the season?). But there is this thing called tradition on top of the travel accommodations other have mentioned.
