Twins risk lowest attendance since 2000 as losing streak continues

Summary

The Minnesota Twins face declining attendance, potentially their lowest since 2000, as they continue to slide out of the playoff race. In a recent home game against the Cleveland Guardians, announced attendance was just 17,676, marking the second-lowest for a Sunday game this season. With only six home games left, the Twins have drawn 1,585,295 fans through 75 games, averaging 21,137 per game, a number some sources suggest does not reflect actual attendees. Their record has worsened to 14-24 since August 1, leaving them six games behind the White Sox in the AL Central. The Yankees are set to visit Target Field for a three-game series following this downward trend.
