Add these to the ugly statistics compiled by the worst Braves team in a quarter-century: the largest drop in the major leagues in local TV ratings and the second-largest drop in home attendance.
The Braves’ TV ratings in the Atlanta market plummeted 36 percent from 2014 levels, the largest percentage decline by any MLB team in its local market, according to a study by Sports Business Journal. And announced attendance fell by an average of 4,048 per home date this year, more than for any team except the Philadelphia Phillies.
