Reported Attendance At Twins, Tigers Game Baffles Those Looking At Photos
MINNEAPOLIS - Maybe the Minnesota Twins organization can see dead people.
The empty Minnesota Twins stadium on a sunny Thursday afternoon prompted several questions and snarky comments and tweets among co-workers when the organization announced the attendance for the day.

The Twins organization stated for the record (what many are calling a partial sellout) 18,374 fans.
They just announced "18,374" fans for today's @tigers/Twins game. Give me a break. Maybe 374....#SecondDeckMinnPRStaff https://t.co/r7mm4mp0td

The makeup game between the Tigers and Twins on Thursday ends up being the first of two games today. Difficult to see where that 18k plus figure came from --- wonder if they'll have enough time to clear the stadium before the evening crowd comes in?
