Last year the number of people attending games seemed to not affect whether the Marlins won or lost at home.
This year Sarah Talalay did the math...
I checked the team's home record for games before crowds of at least
25,000. Of the dozen games that met that mark, seven were losses,
including Opening Day and the final two home games of the season,
compared with five wins.
If you lower the measure to the 18 with crowds of at least 20,000, the
team's at .500 (9-9). So maybe the big crowds aren't the problem, since
the team's home record is 45-36 (or nine more wins than losses).
The games with crowds under 20000 had nine more wins than losses, while the ones with 20000 and above were at .500. Those are tough stats to build a marketing campaign around.
