Part 7/8:
These attendance figures from early 2025 indicate that while overall MLB attendance may be on the rise, specific markets face challenges that reflect poorly on the teams involved. Fans in Chicago, Sacramento, and St. Louis are finding ways to express their voices—primarily through their absence.
As Major League Baseball continues to evolve, the lack of a dedicated fan representation raises questions about the future. No single entity currently advocates for the interests of fans, leaving them to express their dissatisfaction through dwindling attendance numbers. Moving forward, teams must engage more deeply with their communities and address the concerns of their fan bases if they wish to sustain the growth that MLB has recently experienced.
