Believe it or not, the dastardly Cubs are still outdrawing the White Sox as they close in one 100 losses. The Sox are hanging in there and still lead the Tigers by two games in baseball's worst division.
From the September 3, 2012, Chicago Tribune.
Some stats:
As of Augst 30, the 2012 average home attendance:
Cubs 36,409 Sox 24,546
Television audience (Households tuned to the game)
Cubs 66,000, an 11% drop from last year
Sox 70,000, a 10% increase
In these days of Social Networking (Facebook likes)
Cubs 1,710,616 Sox 927,060
Thank Goodness we don't have to play those guys again.
Last night was just another in a long line of hurts the Kansas City Royals have been putting on us. The Sox ended the season 6-12 against them. I couldn't find our record against the Tigers, but I know it is also pretty pathetic.
One bright spot, though, we finally figured out how to beat those pesky Twins. For the first time since that World Series season in 2005, the Sox won their season series gainst those guys, winning 14 of 18 games.
Even If the Sox Do Get to the Playoffs, I'm Thinking One Series and Out. --RoadDog
