Major League Baseball Attendance

Enjoy the Dog Days of Summer with Major League Baseball
This summer enjoy a chance to bring your dog to a Major League Baseball game at stadiums across the country as more than a dozen MLB teams open their parks to four-footed fans for one or more games in 2011.
Thanks to a new twist on America’s favorite pastime, there will be plenty of barks in the parks of Major League Baseball this summer. Baseball teams across the country are welcoming man’s best friend to come to the park and enjoy game day in special seating sections. Most dog-friendly baseball events offer fun, pre-game activities and giveaways for people and their pooches.
MLB leagues started welcoming dogs in some of their parks nationwide a few years ago for game days known as “Dog Days” or “Bark in the Park”, among other names. Most of the teams offer extra activities including a pre-game parade around the field as well as fun contests and giveaways.
While a large number of teams open their parks at least one day per season with a “dogs welcome” sign, there are still several heavy hitters that haven’t stepped up to the plate. Fans anxiously await the day when arch rivals the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees open their parks to dog-loving fans and their fur babies. The Pittsburgh Pirates are the leaders of the pack in Major League Baseball for offering a whopping six dog-friendly games that their four-footed fans can attend this year.
In order to give your pooch a chance to hear their favorite team yell “play ball”, you must buy a ticket for Fido in advance. These events are so popular at some stadiums that they’ve added multiple dog-friendly dates to their schedule. Don’t wait to buy your tickets because these events sell out fast now that the dog days of summer are quickly becoming as American as baseball, hot dogs and apple pie!
View the full schedule of MLB 2011 Dog Days of Summer Events at stadiums across the country. If you don’t see your favorite pro-team listed on the schedule, you may want to check the minor league schedule. The minors offer even more dog-friendly games than the major leagues.
