By season's end, about a quarter-million fewer fans will have visited Target Field in 2014 than a year earlier, but the Twins are hardly the only AL Central team with attendance concerns. A look at the not-so-rosy numbers:

Indians: Despite making the playoffs last year and lingering around the fringe of the race in 2014, Cleveland is in danger of falling behind Tampa Bay and finishing last in the majors in attendance. An 8 percent drop this year means the Indians draw only 17,651 per game.

Royals: They're the only AL Central team with rising attendance this season, an increase of more than 155,000 fans over last year, which sounds great. But Kansas City still ranks only 25th in the majors with an average of 23,648 fans per game.

Tigers: Detroit will miss drawing 3 million for the first time in three years, and the Tigers have dropped to eighth in the majors. The Tigers blame an April-heavy schedule, but they've lost an average of 2,000 fans per game.

White Sox: A top-10 team in attendance just eight years ago, Chicago has fallen to 28th in the majors, and may fail to average 20,000 for the first time since 1999.
