Looked bigger than 21,017 in there (just slightly over half of capacity)...nonetheless, that's our best Tuesday turn-out thus far this season, in fact our best Tuesday since 10th August 2010 vs Marlins (25,939 with Strasburg starting) and our best non-Strasburg Tuesday since 22nd June 2010 (21,168 vs Royals).
Speaking of attendance, we're back ahead of the Orioles (21,274 vs 21,118 average) - the big Memorial Day turn-out no doubt helped.

Finally, a big thank you to all the wonderful Philly supporters who, in true Philly fashion, started bailing on their team about the 7th inning and streaming for the exits - made getting home on the Metro go that bit more quickly!
