home stands
Fans' familiar bleachers
A home stand is a series of consecutive games played by a sports team at their own stadium or arena, without traveling to face opponents elsewhere.
Teams often use home stands to build momentum with supportive crowds: The Yankees begin a seven-game home stand against division rivals.
The term appears almost exclusively in baseball and basketball.
