in the 1980s, the cleveland indians had a home game where only a few hundred fans attended the game. what day did this happen and how many fans attended? this might have happened in the early 90s, but i am pretty it was in the 80s.

I'm not sure how many actually attended, but the lowest attendance figure I could find for them was just over 3,000 at a game in 1986:

That's paid attendance, so it's impossible to know how many actually showed for the game.

The Indians played a makeup game against the Royals in 1981 a day after the regular season ended. This was the year of the 52-day strike and the split-season format to decide division winners. The game had to be played to break a tie between Kansas City and Oakland. I was at the game and there weren't more than a couple hundred people there. It was a Monday afternoon and I think tickets were very cheap. I'll see if I can find any info online.

I'm not sure. I know the A's had a game I think in the late 70s (1979) where the attendance was a whopping 650.

because they all started out 30-15 very last year and then fell off as a results of injuries. This year theyre in frist position again yet followers imagine a similar will ensue. Their closer is unquestionably mad about it and spoke to the media about it (seem that up, its thrilling). and also you received't get mobbed in Cleveland.
