An announced crowd of 40,081 came to the Bronx on Thursday night to watch Yankees-White Sox, setting a new low for attendance at the new Yankee Stadium.

The previous low was an announced crowd of 40,267 on April 5. Capacity at the new Stadium is a little over 52,000.

Attendance at the Stadium has been down for most of the season.

Through the first 11 home games, attendance was down nine percent at the Stadium compared to last season.
