Most attended game in history The all-time attendance record of 115,300 was set at a preseason game between the defending champions Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers on March 29, 2008, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. According to the National Baseball Hall of Fame, this is the only baseball game where the 100,000 figure has been definitively exceeded.

Least attended game in history The record was set on September 28, 1882, in game between the Troy Trojans and the Worcesters in Worcester, Massachusetts, which some reports had only six spectators attend. As both clubs had been notified that they were being dropped from the National League, fans had very little interest in watching the lame-duck teams, especially on a day which the Boston Globe described as "bleak, cold and windy".

This record does not count games played behind closed doors by governmental authority. Games that were played as such included the April 29, 2015 game between the Baltimore Orioles and the Chicago White Sox at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, which was closed because of safety concerns surrounding the 2015 Baltimore protests, and the majority of the 2020 season (only the NLCS and World Series had spectators) which was closed to fans due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

The 1918 season is excluded as it was shortened due to travel restrictions caused by World War I.

The 1981 season is excluded due to the players' strike that cancelled almost two months' worth of games.

The 2020 and 2021 seasons are excluded due to the COVID-19 pandemic that caused restrictions on public gatherings.

4 million or more home attendance totals Toronto Blue Jays became the first team in baseball history to draw 4 million mark in attendance in 1991 season.
