2017 Affiliated Attendance by Total

Ballpark DigestWith the last Minor League Baseball circuit wrapping up regular-season play yesterday, we review affiliated attendance for the season. We continue with a listing of 2017 MiLB attendance by total.

We began this series of stories with a listing of 2017 MiLB attendance by league and 2017 MiLB attendance by level. We’ll follow this up with a listing of affiliated attendance by average. Summer-collegiate attendance has already been posted, with independent baseball covered after the Atlantic League season ends.

Here are the complete attendance figures of affiliated baseball teams, as listed by total attendance, with a comparison of 2016 attendance figures. All stats come directly from league websites and last year’s Ballpark Digest attendance rankings.
