MLB: San Francisco Giants have never announced a crowd smaller than 20,000 as their 23-year-old ballpark
SAN FRANCISCO – The San Francisco Giants have never played before an announced crowd smaller than 20,000 since they moved into their China Basin ballpark more than two decades ago.A crowd of 20,203, the smallest attendance figure of the season at Oracle Park, watched Alex Cobb’s complete game shutout Monday night as the Giants beat the Cardinals 4-0.
Still, Giants CEO Larry Baer isn’t sounding the alarm, at least not yet. The Giants, through 11 home games this season, are averaging 30,616 per game, which ranks 13th in MLB and is roughly the same as last season’s average attendance of 30,650, which was 12th-best. Attendance for Tuesday’s date with the Cardinals likely won’t be announced until past the midway point of a usual nine-inning game that starts at 6:45 p.m.

As sand miners prosper in Uganda, a vital lake basin suffersThe Lwera wetland, stretching more than 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the Ugandan capital Kampala into the western interior, has long been worked over by sand miners, both legal and illegal, motivated by demand from the construction industry. Now, all known corporate operations within the wetland have authorization to be there, giving them a measure of legitimacy that’s frustrating environmental activists, local officials and others who say the mining activities must be stopped because they degrade the wetland. The National Environment Management Authority said companies that are found to be degrading the environment can face stiff financial penalties.
