MLB 2019 Ejections, Attendance & Weather – Week of 9/16: Windy Pirates



The Pirates played in the two windiest games of the week, the first in Chicago and the second in San Francisco.

Neat!

Meanwhile, the Marlins hosted the Brewers, and no more than 8,000 showed up for any game in the series. In fact, The Rockies highest attended game had more than twice of the entire Marlins-Brewers series. Needless to say they got outdrawn

MLB teams outdrawn by AAA teams: Miami (11 games), Seattle and Baltimore (5 games each), Chicago White Sox (4 games), Toronto and Detroit (3 games each), Texas (1 game)

Time of game once sat near the 3:15 mark, continuing its season long climb, as 40 man rosters allow plenty more pitching changes. Brutal.

Ejections were high this week with 16, inching closer to the 200 mark on the season. 10 in the NL and 6 in the AL widens the gap to 24, with the NL likely to lead the ejections race this season.

Now, as always, your miscellany.  And of course we have included the raw data at the bottom of the page. Enjoy!
