The MLB may try to appeal to every casual fan it possibly can, but the real life blood of the league are the diehard fanatics who eat, sleep and breathe the game. This next group of fan bases do just that, showing off their team pride regardless of whether the team is winning or losing. Here's our list of the 6 MLB Fan Basses Who Are The Most Supportive Through Thick And Thin:
Boston Red Sox
Fenway doesn't sit as many fans as other parks, but it's almost always packed. The Red Sox haven't always been great, although recent success has helped their fan base. Back when the Red Sox couldn't get over the hump and win that World Series, Boston still supported its team. There's a reason that Boston is one of the best sports towns in the country. Their support for the Red Sox is a great example of that.
Chicago Cubs
The "lovable losers" have always had support from their fans. Things haven't always been great for the Cubs, and there might be more low moments and highs. But through it all, the Cubs have benefited from a supportive fan base. The Cubs are trending upward and could get the same treatment that the Royals had this year.
Kansas City Royals
The Royals have recently found success and the rest of the MLB has seen just how great the fans are. After years of patiently waiting for a winner, Royals' fans can now say they support the World Series Champions. The Royals faithful stood by their team through the rough years and they are now reaping the rewards.
Los Angeles Dodgers
There's a lot to do in LA, which makes the support of the Dodgers even more impressive. The Dodgers' have one of the biggest parks in the MLB, but it's still usually sold out. The Dodgers' fans have proven they'll support the team if things are good or bad.
St. Louis Cardinals
Cardinals fans might not be liked by everyone (ask a Reds' fan what they think), but there's no doubt they are one of the most supportive fan bases. The Cardinals benefit from one of the most dedicated and passionate fan bases in all of sports.
San Francisco Giants
The Bay Area has adopted the Giants as their team (sorry, Oakland). The fan base is supportive and dedicated, and the recent World Series titles don't hurt. The Giants have a long history of great support, dating back to the days of Willie Mays. The stadium isn't massive, but it's almost always sold out.
