  19.      If you have the patience to sift through them, the figures on the
  20. following pages, dating from 1890 through 1993, tell a remarkable story.
  21. Season attendance has approached 4.5 million in Colorado in 1993, and it has
  22. been as little as 6,088 in Cleveland in 1899, when the awful Spiders went
  23. 20-134. The first club to pass the million mark was the New York Yankees of
  24. 1920, featuring a newcomer named Ruth and a ballpark borrowed from the New
  25. York Giants (who did not reach the mark themselves until 1945). In the depths
  26. of the Depression, the St. Louis Browns posted annual attendance figures
  27. (80,922 in 1935; 88,113 in 1933) below what a weekend set produces in many
  28. major-league venues.
  29.      Why did attendance stagnate in the 1890s? How much did the entry of the
  30. American League into National League strongholds New York, Chicago,
  31. Philadelphia, and St. Louis hurt the senior franchises? Were the Dodgers
  32. justified in leaving Brooklyn? How did baseball survive in Washington as long
  33. as it did, surpassing the million mark only once from 1892 to 1971? Did anyone
  34. notice that Atlanta's attendance of 1990 doubled, and then tripled, over the
  35. next two years? Or that while major league attendance increased by 25.8
  36. percent from 1992 to 1993, almost all of that gain came from the senior
  37. circuit? (The American League rose by a modest 5 percent while the National
  38. League posted a whopping gain of 53 percent; even if we subtract expansion
  39. clubs Florida and Colorado, the NL increase is still an impressive 21.8
  40. percent.)
  41.      You get the picture. There's stuff here that permits you to chart trends
  42. in baseball that you already know about, and if you are eagle-eyed you may
  43. pick up an anomalous figure that prompts you to rethink what you thought you
  44. knew.
  45.      A researcher's goldmine, the tables that follow tell an interesting story
  46. for the average fan as well. Does winning a pennant correlate with higher
  47. attendance? Are first-division teams more profitable than those in the second
  48. division? What is the impact on attendance of a new stadium?
  49.      By the time the next edition rolls around we may be able to gather
  50. figures going back to the dawn of professional baseball. Here are some
  51. scattered tidbits:
  52.  
  53.    -  In their first year of existence, 1871, the Boston Red Stockings
  54.       counted 32,600 fans in 18 home games.
  55.  
  56.    -  In 1882, the last year of its existence as an NL franchise, the Troy
  57.       Haymakers drew a whopping 26,000 attendees for its 42 home games, with
  58.       one late season date posting a recorded crowd of 12 (that's not a typo).
  59.  
  60.    -  The 1891 American Association, in its final year of operation, counted
  61.       1,296,000 fans, or an average of 162,000 per team, a figure very
  62.       comparable to the 169,060 of the National League. In 1892, with the AA
  63.       gone and the NL a twelve-team circuit, the average team attendance was
  64.       less than 152,000. Is there a lesson to be drawn from this?
  65.  
  66.      Yes, and the lesson is plain for magnates no less than fans and students
  67. of the game.
