I don't know that the popularity of the LA Dodgers led by Ohtani is sky high. For the first time in the club's history, it exceeded 4 million spectators in the season.
The Dodgers announced on the 22nd (Korea time) that 46,601 people entered the final home game of the season against the San Francisco Giants at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California, recording a total of 4,012,470 spectators for the season.
49,537 people per game, slightly less than 50,000. It is the No. 1 team in the Major League.
Only five teams in the Major League have exceeded 4 million spectators in a single season. After the Toronto Blue Jays (1991, 1992, 1993), the Colorado Rockies (1993), the New York Yankees (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008), and the New York Mets (2008), the Dodgers set a record of 4 million for the 10th time this season.
Since 2013, when Ryu Hyun-jin joined the team, the Dodgers have been reborn as a popular team with good performance and box office success. He has been in the postseason for 13 consecutive years since 2013During the same period, Juss ranked first in major league spectators 12 times.
However, it failed to surpass 4 million spectators until last year.
The Dodgers, which recorded 3,974,309 in 2019, drew 3,941,251 spectators in 81 home games in the 2024 season, but failed to surpass 4 million.
The average attendance per game is nearly 50,000 out of 4 million spectators. It is a remarkable and enviable figure.

The Samsung Lions, the largest spectator team among the 10 clubs, have a total of 1.54 million,262 spectators this season. The average is 23,064 people. The average audience of the Dodgers is well over twice that of Samsung.
Dodgers' explosive popularity. The secret is divided into three.
First of all, it's the size of a baseball field.
The Dodger Stadium, which opened in 1962, boasts the largest number of seats in the Major League with 56,000 seats.
More than 50,000 people entered the Dodgers 46 times in 81 home games this year. There has never been less than 40,000 people.

The top star 'Otani effect' cannot be ignored. The Dodgers attracted Japanese fans to Dodger Stadium by recruiting not only Shohei Ohtani, but also right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who dominated Japanese professional baseball, and Roki Sasaki, who is synonymous with fastball. Latin American players and Korean players such as Kim Hye-sung have also been recruited and are constantly making efforts to expand their global fans.
Third, steady grades.
The Dodgers, the winner of last year's World Series, are ranked first in the National League West with 88 wins and 68 losses this season. Although it is not as overwhelming as last year, one of the most terrifying teams in the postseason is the Star Army Dodgers.
The Dodgers, which are showing off their ticket power with an average crowd of 35,118 (1st place) in away games, will end the regular season with six consecutive away games between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Seattle Mariners.
