There has to be a way that MLB can figure out how to schedule early-season games in either warm-cities or teams that have indoor stadiums because fans have to put up with crappy weather far too often. That was the case once again on Monday for Chicago White Sox fans and with all the circumstances surrounding the game it created an all-time bad visual on the South Side.
Yes, we’ll point out that it’s 35 degrees in Chicago and Monday’s game was already re-scheduled to an afternoon start and yes, White Sox fans who may have shown up at the original 7 p.m. start are probably working during the day, but damn does this look bad.

That was right at the start of the game against the Tampa Bay Rays, so maybe a few more fans showed up, but the images are rough.

There might be 200 people at White Sox game (not exaggerating) and I don’t blame them… freezing, overcast and people work! @cbschicago pic.twitter.com/pr7ds4LKO1

By the way, personally I don’t blame White Sox fans for not going to this game. Freezing cold and it’s the Rays? Even with Chris Archer pitching, hard pass.
Still, that’s a funny picture and actually the Rays should be used to it too.
