Attendance.

"What surely is bothersome and concerning to Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner is Monday's small crowd wasn't a one-time thing.

On April 17, also a Monday, the Yankees had their second sub-30,000 crowd of the season and fourth overall at new Yankee Stadium, which opened in 2009. That night, 28,181 turned out for a 7-4 win over the Chicago White Sox that was the club's eighth victory in a row.

And the crowds the following two nights were just 30,075 and 30,014 for Yankees-White Sox games."
