It too bad that all those empty seats in Cincy don’t care what Elly does.

Seats tend to be empty in Cincy when the Reds are on the road.

I mean, how large is that town and they can’t fill 1/4th of the stadium?

Are you trolling?

Average attendance in both 2023 and 2024 was around 24,000 per game. This is a clear increase of around 6,000 per game in the preceding years before Elly. It's also 21st in the league despite Cincinnati being 29th in market size (according to MLB's market score for revenue sharing).

Edit to add: The place is always packed when I'm there. How many games have you been to?

A little late to the thread here, but we are huge Elly fans in our house. We were able to go to the Elly switch hitter bobblehead night back on the 12th against the Pirates, and were able to snag several of them, which was awesome as it's always crazy lines to get in when anything relates to him. Were finally able to see him hit not only a HR but a grand slam in person! That was awesome! Such an amazing talent and so much fun to watch!

Extended his career long hit streak to 13 in game 1 of the doubleheader today. Let's see if he can make it 14 tonight.

redlegs · 04-30-2025, 09:38 PM
