Coming off their first losing season since 2007 and off to a slow start this year, the Cardinals are seeing a rare downturn in fan interest, as evidenced by attendance and ticket resale data.Earlier this month, at the completion of the season’s first homestand, the Cardinals saw a five-game average attendance of 34,909, which covered all games on that homestand after the opener.That’s the lowest five-game average attendance at Busch Stadium since 2012.Compared with the same period at the start of last year, more than 5,000 fewer tickets were sold for each of those five games — a 13% drop on average per game.To start this year, the Cardinals reported a sellout crowd of 47,273 on opening day and hit the 40,000 mark three more times within the first 12 games. Last year, there were six crowds of 40,000 or more in the season’s first 12 games.
