Look at the photo above. That photo was taken on October 3, 2015. It was the first game of a doubleheader that day since it had rained the day before and the powers that be demanded that the Phillies and Marlins both play 162 games. History marks it as something of a nondescript affair. Neither team was anywhere close to a playoff spot, which explains why there is more blue in the picture than any other color you can see. It was so unimportant and noneventful that even Baseball Reference, that great database of just about anything related to the game, doesn’t even have an official attendance listed.
