Ladies Day at big-league games date back to the late 1800s, and even though a bit old-timey by today’s standards, baseball still woos female fans. Washington, Philadelphia, and the Chicago White Sox are among teams with Ladies Nights, and the White Sox also have a Mother-Son Night, with specially priced tickets.
The St. Louis Cardinals hold a Ladies Weekend with pregame entertainment, activities, and giveaway items all selected with females in mind.
Atlanta, Cincinnati, and Kansas City encourage leaving the men at home with Girls Night Out games.
For the needle-and-thread enthusiasts, a handful of teams, including the Mets, Diamondbacks, and Brewers, hold Stitch N Pitch games in which fans who love to knit, crochet, quilt, or cross-stitch sit together in discounted seats and, in some cases, get expert help and view samples from local craft shops.
