"Given the situation of not having a lot of time to promote, it's much too early to make any judgment," acting commissioner Bud Selig said Sunday. "When there's warmer weather and races heat up, attendance will improve."
No one sure if fans will go the distance
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Partly because of heavy discounting by some teams, baseball attendance during the first week of the season declined by only 4 percent from last April.
Last April, the Blue Jays averaged 48,129 for 11 home games. For their first five home games this year, they averaged just 37,654.

Despite some exceptionally small crowds, teams sold 1,863,463 tickets for the 66 games last week, an
"Iknew it was going to be bad, but
I didn't know it was going to be this
bad," Blue Jays president Paul Beeston
said. "It'll come back. I'm confident," he said. "I don't even worry. But it won't come easily, it won't come quickly and it won't come unless we address it properly with the fans."
Before the strike, Toronto had drawn more than 4 million fans for three consecutive seasons. Even though they fell out of the pennant race last season, the Blue Jays averaged 49,287 for 59 home games at the SkyDome.
"It's pretty obvious the game has paid a heck of a price," Colorado Rockies chairman Jerry McMorris said.
His team, which averaged 58,598 for home games last year, averaged 41,671 for its first two games in
"We're over 3 million tickets sold," McMorris said. "We've got an average 4,000 seats left per game left to sell that are not day-of-game."
Los Angeles, despite reducing ticket prices to just $3.50 — the Dodgers' top price when they moved to California in 1958 — averaged 45,950 for three home games. The New York Mets sold all tickets for $1 for a pair of weekend games against St. Louis and averaged 48,039.

Beeston added that baseball needed to make sure last season did not repeat itself.
"Those people came to January, February, March not knowing if there was going to be a baseball season, and they made other choices," Beeston said.

Baseball executives said the strike caused them to lose a lot of group sales, business that won't be completely recovered until next season.
"I don't think we'll be able to tell until June or July what the strike did to us as far as attendance," said Philadelphia Phillies owner Bill Giles, whose team averaged 37,309 for its first two home games. "I think you're going to see some of the clubs like Kansas City and Pittsburgh in particular — who got rid of a bunch of players — hurt in attendance."
"We've got to use this as an opportunity to build between management and the players so we go forward together," he said.
Pittsburgh averaged 20,944 for two home games and Kansas City averaged 16,886 for four games. The Royals' figure doesn't include 5,000 free tickets distributed for each.
"I won't have any comments on attendance until I see what happens the first couple of weeks," union head Donald Fehr said. "It's too early to draw conclusions."

Last April, teams sold 9,290,363 tickets for 317 games, an average of 29,307. The season average was 31,611.
