The White Sox attendance has seen the fifth largest percentage decline in pro sports in the last decade, a financial news website reports, but a Sox official cried foul over what the team considers an unfair comparison: Ten years ago the White Sox were World Series winners.
Attendance at U.S. Cellular Field has declined about 24 percent in that span, trailing only the Pistons, Phillies, Panthers and Indians in fan erosion, 247wallst.com reported in its review of MLB, NFL, NHL and NBA attendance figures published last week.
