Upper deck in left field was pretty empty. But most of the rest of the stadium was pretty packed.

Basically today about the same  with the left field corner mostly empty. Give or take 37,000 to 38,000 again unless a big walkup which I don't think will happen.. Maybe the weather keeps the walkup down.

I took my young son to his first Orioles game at Camden Yards today, we had a blast. The Russell St exit was backed up on i95 almost a mile from the exit (worst backup in 32 seasons taking that exit),

Missed by a blackjack hand.

Through 30 home dates (Friday’s game), the O’s attendance was 602,069, up from 472,840 last year, a 27.3% increase. If that rate of increase were maintained, the O’s would draw 1.737 mm fans this year

Already had some light rain where I live. Stopped. Looks like it may be coming earlier than they originally said.

So attendance is 1,756,172 with six games to go. So looks like about 1,915,172  or something around that to end the season 

Plus or minus five?   😉

If I were to look through this thread, I think I’d find that nobody even suggested that 1.9 mm was possible until maybe late July.*  They had very strong attendance over the summer.  At the 40 home game mark, they were at 809,511.   You always expect the second half to be stronger, especially when the team is contending, but it’s gone about as well as the Orioles could have hoped attendance-wise.  And with the incentive of 2023 playoff tickets for people who commit to a season ticket plan for next year, they should get a nice head start on 2024.   

* I went back and looked.  First mention of 1.9 mm being possible was on August 10.

The biggest year-over-year attendance increase this year is the Phillies. Approximately 720k more fans total and 9,700 per game. 

I have no data to back this up, but I'd imagine that a lot of that is from season ticket plans sold thanks to their World Series run last year.

Right now the Nats series only looks around 30,000. Red Sox series might have more people buying tickets now. Thursday looks like 20,000. Saturday is close to a sellout. Friday and Sunday ,do we get near 37,000 or do or stay in the low 30,000.

Right now the Friday and Sunday Red Sox games don't have 30,000 tickets sold yet but Saturday only has a few single seats left. Right field corner is only open for Saturdays game. Hopefully we can get 30,000 or more for Friday and Sunday.

It may depend on if the AL East title is still in play.  I don’t have tickets that weekend, but if it gets close to those dates and it appears that those games remain critical, I easily could decide to get some last minute tickets.  I’m sure I’m not the only fan thinking that way.

There will be a good day-of-game bump for whatever the first game is that we go in with a chance to clinch the division, whether that game is against Washington or Boston.

You better. Don't want you to complain to me we only drew 1,899,989 and missed 1,900,000.😀

20,283 tonight. So more like 40,000 or so total for the Nats series. 1,900,000 is now guaranteed and maybe 180,000 or so more

      The Achilles heel for this team is the bullpen

      By Moose Milligan · Posted

      The Achilles heel for this team is going to be the unit that doesn't step up in the postseason. I can easily see scenarios where: the bullpen is hot and provides good performances but the offense sputters and isn't clutch the offense comes up big but the bullpen blows games late starting pitching tosses some clunkers (not really likely with Burnes and Eflin) and they can't recover the defense sucks and gives opponents extra outs to work with, blowing games open when the bullpen or SP would have been able to escape and continue We've seen all of these units falter at one point or another during this season.  We've also seen all of these units perform very well at different times throughout the season.  So, we'll see what turns out to be the Achilles heel for the Orioles in the playoffs starting next week.

      I agree I missed the mark on a correct forum, and ask a moderator to please relocate to Rants as that game annoyed me yesterday. I appreciate the strong moderators here and know I'm not one of them.     Sorry for making it worse at a tough moment.

      Nail hit on head. It really comes down to the offense in the playoffs for us. I think our pitching is good enough overall especially the starters. Shaky sometimes sure, but they can hold their own most of the time. If we don't bring our "A" hitting game in the playoffs we won't go far.

      The bullpen has warts for sure, but if this offense doesn't figure out how to hit good pitching in the playoffs, the bullpen won't matter. Even I got a little excited when they put 5 and 9 up on the board Tues and Wed, and then it crashed back to reality last night when I remembered they were facing Schmidt and Stroman. When facing a real ace like Cole they were completely shut down. What's gonna happen next week when they face Skubal, Reagins, and/or Lugo? The mediocre bullpen won't matter if they can't figure out how to score some runs off pitchers like that...

      Starters vs Minnesota?

      By DirtyBird · Posted

      Why carry four 1 inning guys over a LH long option? Cionel stinks and should not be on the roster over Povich when you still have Akin, Coulombe and Soto.

      Really would be nice to win tonight OR have DET lose so then they can play around Sat/Sun when the games would have no bearing on the seeding. Dont want this to come down to Sunday and having to win to get the 4 seed or then there will be some tough decisions that have to be made.
