BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - Trailing 9-2 in the top of the ninth inning against the Montgomery Biscuits, the Birmingham Barons are on their way to a loss in the box score. But they continued to be winners at the box office.

The Labor Day game at Regions Field drew an announced crowd of 4,388 to bring the season total to 396,820.

That attendance mark puts this season's Barons at No. 4 in the modern era of the Southern League, since 1964. Additionally, the 2013 season ranks fourth all-time in the history of the Birmingham Barons, dating back to 1901. Michael Jordan's 1944 season with the Barons tops both lists.

The Barons had already passed the attendance record for highest attendance of a Southern League team playing its first season in a new ballpark.

"We're very thankful and appreciative of the community and the whole area of Birmingham coming out to support this team and this facility," said Stan Logan, one of the team owners. "We're very fortunate to have the corporate support that we've had as well as the City of Birmingham, the leaders that we've had. The professionals that designed this place, put it together did a tremendous job."

The overall attendance total includes 7,268 announced at the Rickwood Classic. That means that 389,552 have officially come through the turnstiles at Regions Field.

The 2013 Barons fell short of being the second Birmingham team and the fourth overall in Southern League to draw 400,000 fans in the regular season. The Barons had special prizes for Regions Field fans No. 100,000, 200,000 and 300,000.

Fan No. 400,000 at Regions Field will be recognized when it happens, whether it is during the playoffs or the 2014 season.
