Heard the Atlanta crowd was even smaller, I thought they had a good loyal baseball fan base there?
San Diego was rocking I can tell you.

The bandwagon is over.

I watched all 4 games and the crowds were packed.

I can tell you why I didn’t go. Bc it was at 4pm on a workday/schoolday and my baseball-loving daughter had softball practice.

Yeah I pay for a bunch of channels including a bunch of sports channels, and having to go find it on peacock is crap.

People tend to underestimate how big baseball stadiums actually are. A "bad" baseball attendance would still fill any NBA or NHL arena. None of these leagues can touch the NFL but baseball attendance is perfectly fine for the most part. If baseball teams didnt build stadiums that hold 40k+ people none of the attendance issues would exist. They could easily just reduce capacity to 18k-20k like the NBA/NHL and their attendance percentages would match those leagues.

Oh no doubt, but someone sent me a pic of the braves game, it appeared to be after the game had started and it looked half full - for a playoff game. Maybe it was AI?

They do. But they are sick and goddam tired of having to play at 2 pm on a weekday EVERY SINGLE PLAYOFFS because the networks force-feed us Yankees/Red Sox in prime time every year.
Same for the Astros. Until yesterday, I think they had sold out every single playoff game in the last 10 years, regardless of start time. The fans know that this year's team is not very good and won't go far in the playoffs. And they suck at home during the playoffs lately anyway. I understand not wanting to go.

Haven't won a home playoff game in 3 years. 8 straight home losses is pathetic, and these soft arse players wanna cry. I know those previous years aren't on guys that weren't around, but they earned the boos yesterday. The team absolutely stank it up on the field.

I honestly think the boos were more directed at the continued poor managerial decisions about personnel, especially pitchers.

The division was decided long before that series
It was a wash series to end the season

Sold out means nothing, even bigger dolt.
Butts in seats, the NFL,nhl,MLB always get away with those bs numbers for attendance. Paid is not actual attendance

So they put the MLB playoffs on a premium streaming app

the loyal fanbase isn’t as devoted as they want you to think.
Whoever considered Houston a loyal fan base?
At least 25% of Astros attendance is comped tix from O&G vendors. With a 4pm start on a Tuesday for that game…people need to work.

Yes, because every sporting event that is on NBC and NBC Sports Network is available on Peacock.

Watch the video of Rileys HR. The upper deck was empty
Though it was a 1pm game on a weekday
