Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig has blamed the spring weather for low attendance this season, including at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
You guys know how bad the weather is," Selig said. "I left Phoenix Sunday and it was 96. I flew to Milwaukee and I opened the blinds at home the next morning and it was snowing.
"We're only 1.2, 1.3 percent off (average attendance figures). But we've had horrendous weather, especially in the Midwest. I really don't have any concerns."
The Cubs had to postpone Tuesday's game against the Padres.
"I know about the attendance at Wrigley and I have every confidence in them, Selig said.
