The Tampa bay Rays boast an impressive 33-19 record after defeating the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday at Tropicana Field.

They got the victory, but not many people in the city likely knew about it since they elected not to show up for this game.

The Blue Jays and Rays played in front of 5,786 people, which is the lowest crowd ever for Tropicana Field, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.

The 5,786 is the smallest crowd ever for a #Rays game at the Trop. Previous low was 6,509 on Sept. 5, 2017 when a hurricane was in the forecast
