wait, I never never knew that about the road team getting 30%

i've been checking the Pirates attendance very closely the last few weeks, as they are very very close to setting an all time attendance record that was set in 2001 when PNC (the best ballpark in America opened)

The Pirates have great road attendance numbers this year for some reason too.

so hopefully the stupid fucking tight wad owners will actually spend a couple nickels this off season

The AL used to pay on tickets sold while the NL paid on actual attendance. When interleague started, the NL changed to the AL system.

Game 1 of the 2014 World Series was no "royal" in terms of the ratings.
Tuesday night's opening game of the Major League Baseball World Series brought in 12.1 million viewers for Fox, making it the lowest rated game 1 and the fifth lowest rated World Series game of all time.

The game, which saw the San Francisco Giants stomp the Kansas City Royals 7-1, rated a 3.4 among viewers aged 18 to 49, down 15% from last year's Series, a match-up of the Boston Red Sox and St. Louis Cardinals.
Alternatively, this year's Series includes the small market Royals. They haven't been in the World Series since "Back to the Future" was in theaters.
Kansas City tuned in. Game 1 scored a huge 48.2 overnight in Kansas City. In San Francisco, however, it rated a 29.3 overnight.
 
Gatorade cost the Cubs a shot at the World Series

While facing the Padres in the 1984 National League playoffs, Cubs first baseman Leon Durham made a critical error in the seventh inning that many say cost them the game, and subsequent World Series slot. Why did he mess up? Apparently, his teammate Ryne Sandberg spilled a bunch of Gatorade on his glove by accident minutes before the game, making the thing super sticky.
