ST. LOUIS (AP) -The St. Louis Cardinals' regular-season sellout streak ended at 165 games Wednesday night with an announced attendance of 39,915 in 51-degree weather for a game against the Colorado Rockies.
It's also the first non-sellout at 3-year-old Busch Stadium and the first for the franchise since Sept. 28, 2005, at the old Busch Stadium.
Manager Tony La Russa said he didn't notice the empty seats, and didn't mind in any case.
"We've still sold 3 million tickets, haven't we?'' La Russa said. "The fans are supporting us.''
