AS the first openings on April II
and Is drew around 225,00O per-
sons, this means that 100000 saw
the sixteen major league openings
this year. That is an average of
% 900 persons to an opening, far
greater than anything known in
baseball heretofore.
Leaving out passes and opening
day invitations. it is estimated that
the fans Of the ten major league
cities paid around $350,000 for the
privilege Of being present at their
respective flag raisings.
At that rate, it doesn't look as
though any Of the magnates are
likely to finish the 1923 season in
the poorhouse.
The Washington times., 1923-05-04

The second batch of openings did
not draw as many patrons as the
first, though, q new attendance
record was set in Detroit. where
enlarged stands and the enthusiasm
of the town over the new Tigers
assured a capacity crowd. Comis-
keys opening in Chicago drew re-
markably well. considering the fact
that the White Sox had won only
one game before opening at home.
One the whole, the American
League openings drew better, but
the great crowd at the Yankee
Stadium helped raise the American
League average.
The best openings i'm the Ma.
tiOnal League were Chicago and
Cincinnati, both Of. whom had the
first openings, which usually
draw better than the second.
The poorest opening in either
league was the Cardinal-Red show
in st. Louis, which attracted only
8, 900 of the Missouri fans.
The approximate attendances for
the second batch of opening days
were as follows:

roared with delight.
There was little to enthuse the

contest, for the champions won, 3

been defeated had things broken

Roger Peckinpaugh and one bril-

the admission price.
