When my boys have scrimmages, it seems like most of the parents do stay to watch as if it were a game.

Have no answer since I've never heard of a scrimmage in baseball so I'm curious exactly what it is. Based on what I know about a scrimmage in football, I'm thinking it's a practice.

I've always watched everything! A scrimmage is just a practice 'game' that doesn't count for seasonal win/loss...

a practice is only the team.
a game is against another team in a seasonal line up that counts in the win/loss stats.
A scrimmage is against another team not in their seasonal line up (usually). It is played like it is a game but it doesn't count in the win/loss stats.
These days it seems parents, mom especially, stay for every thing. Even practices. I wouldn't have stayed for practices or scrimmages. But I tended to see most of the sports as the kids activities and not mine.

Yes. My DH always stays at practices, but if it's a scrimmage we all go like it's a game.

How old is the kid? The younger the more likely I attended everything. DS is almost 14 and I attend scrimmages if at all possible (he doesn't play baseball, but basketball). We no longer attend practices. Next month he will attend a basketball camp run by our varsity coach, a few weeks later that same coach has arranged for a 3 day tournament, 9-3 each day. I won't attend all of those games simply bc ds4 won't tolerate that much time sitting in bleachers. We'll probably attended a game or two each day, maybe more on the last day if they're in the finals. If they were in the evenings dh or I would attend all the games.

Yes. Dh coached Ds for a lot of years in community youth league. I was at every practice/scrimmage and game because I worked at school and was off in time to take Ds and be there. It was a commitment, but a great thing for Ds.

Yes, we do. And we more often than not stay for practices, too. If the weather is.nice, I will read or socialize with other moms.
