Attendance

Announced gate at 78 home dates, 2023.

By situation

Day and night divide the home schedule, and so do weekend and weekday. The road line is a different question.

By season

Announced gate — tickets distributed, which is the figure every reference publishes and is not the same as people through the turnstile. A game the feed reports no gate for is left out rather than counted as empty. Seasons before attendance was carried into the lake are absent from the trend rather than shown as zero.

Game time

By situation

Regulation and extra innings divide the season, and so do home and road. Day and night overlap both.

By season

Regulation games only, in minutes. 155 minutes this season.

Elapsed time from first pitch to final out. The feed does not itemise delays, so a rain delay is inside these numbers with no way to subtract it. Games called early are excluded — five innings in ninety-three minutes is not a short game — but they still count in attendance, because the crowd turned up.

Record versus run differential

Cleveland Guardians are 76-86, a .469 win rate, while their -35 run differential implies .476. That is essentially in line — the record reflects the run scoring.
