Dayton, Ohio- Minor League Baseball™ has announced the final attendance rankings for all 160 teams for the 2018 season. The Dayton Dragons, a Single-A team, finished eighth in attendance among the 160 teams with a season's total of 550,725. The Dragons average per home date of 7,868 ranked ninth in the Minor Leagues.

"The Dragons success is a tribute to our great fans, season ticket holders, and our corporate partners," said Robert Murphy, Dragons President & General Manager. "Our 2018 season was filled with great memories. We saw 100 mph fastballs from Hunter Greene and we were excited to welcome first round draft pick Jonathan India to Dayton. We introduced a new Hometown Heroes program. We helped raise money for two great causes through special auctions of game-worn jerseys on American Celebration Night and Defeat Cancer Night. And we are already at work to make 2019, our 20th year, another great season of Dragons Baseball at Fifth Third Field."
The Dragons 19 seasons of operation represent the top 19 single-season attendance totals in Single-A baseball history.
Each of the 70 Dragons home games in 2018 resulted in a sell-out, extending the Dragons sell-out streak to 1,316 consecutive games. Every Dragons game ever played at Fifth Third Field has been a sell-out.  
Minor League Baseball™ also announced that its 2018 regular season attendance total of 40,450,337 marked the 14th consecutive year that teams combined to top 41 million.
