Hmmm. I wonder if a serious baseball numbers-cruncher has ever delved into the influence of audience attendance on a team or player's game performance. How does a player perform when the stadium is 1/3 full? Maybe a normally marginal player performs slightly better...perhaps he is less intimidated by less people? Does the superstar slack off in front of 15,000 people vs. stepping up his game in front of 30,000+? It may only be peripherally related to the overall stats, but it would be interesting to see audience numbers juxtaposed with various critical statistics.
