Throughout the postseason, Razorgator the travel channel united states has been tracking the price changes of World Series tickets. Now, that both the NL and AL Champions have been decided, we discuss the movement in prices and what trends we are seeing on the secondary market.
The average price of World Series tickets in Boston is $1565 over a potential four home games. the travel channel united states That is, a 9% drop in price since last Tuesday and a 14% fall since the beginning of the MLB Playoffs. Prices likely decreased due to the matchup; many felt that a Red Sox vs. Dodgers series was slightly more favorable. World Series tickets in Boston have always been the most expensive the travel channel united states ticket on the market after the Pirates were eliminated; Boston is a big market, especially for sports the travel channel united states and the City's baseball team has not reached the World Series since 2007. We drew a comparison in-market for Boston fans: the cost of Red Sox World Series tickets are 18% more than Bruins Stanley Cup Finals tickets were this year.
If you plan to see a World Series game in St. Louis, you'll pay much less. At an average ticket price of $935 over three home games, Cardinals fans can claim they have the better deal. Although, the City of St. Louis is seeing a different trend in prices; World Series tickets at Busch Stadium are climbing in price, up 11% since last Tuesday and 3% since the beginning of the postseason. Again, a possible reason is the matchup – an increase in price likely reflects an increase in demand; the travel channel united states Fans have already seen a Detroit the travel channel united states vs. St. Louis World Series matchup of late (2006).

Cards fans are used to paying a low ticket price in the postseason; in 2013, St. Louis has always been the cheapest the travel channel united states ticket on the market – through the Division Series, Championship Series, and now the World Series.

In 2011, Cardinals World Series tickets averaged $900, 4% less than 2013 prices.

On this date last year, St. Louis Cardinals 2012 World Series tickets ranged from $545 $870 over a potential four home games.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are the only team of the four to see an increase in average price; up 13% in the last two weeks, Dodgers World Series tickets are now second most expensive in the League, averaging $1,509.
Last postseason we began to look at the price of World Series tickets for each team following the NLDS and ALDS games. This year, we wanted to get a jump start. With eight teams fighting for a chance to win the title of World Series Champions, we'll update you regularly on price changes and trends during each round of the MLB Playoffs.
The average the travel channel united states price of a World Series ticket is currently $1406.

Entering the Championship series, Tigers prices for their World Series home games averaged $950, second most expensive the travel channel united states of the four remaining clubs behind the San Francisco Giants. Two days before the 2012 World Series began, Detroit Tigers prices for three home games averaged $708. Detroit Tigers World Series ticket prices reached an all-time low following the team's first two losses to the Giants.
This year, the American League won the All-Star game. So, should the Tigers the travel channel united states find themselves playing the travel channel united states in the World Series the travel channel united states for a second straight year, they would have home field advantage. When looking at average price of World Series Tigers tickets, we took the average of four games (last year, three). Entering the ALDS against the A's, Detroit Tigers World Series tickets are averaging $1,660. Despite having the cheapest division series ticket price, the Tigers currently have the third most expensive World Series ticket average the travel channel united states price.
While we don't have any World Series ticket data from the past decade on the Oakland A's, we can begin to analyze 2013 prices.

Before division series play began, Oakland Athletics World Series tickets averaged $947, second cheapest in MLB only to St. Louis Cardinals World Series tickets.
The Red Sox have climbed from the bottom of the AL East standings to the top in one season.

In July, Boston Red Sox tickets were the most expensive in MLB, averaging the travel channel united states $107 for games that month played at home. The average was $15 more than the second most expensive team in the league.
the travel channel united states There has never been any doubt that Boston fans are loyal towards their sports teams. The Red Sox sold out 820 straight home games, a professional sports record. That loyalty is displayed in the high price of Boston Red Sox World Series tickets. At an average price of $1812, the Red Sox have the most expensive World Series prices to date. Will the Sox who have the best record in the American League, hang their first World Series banner since 2007?
The Rays finished the latter half of the season 14-5 and were one of the hottest teams in baseball in September. Tampa Bay earned a division series berth after winning the travel channel united states the AL tiebreaker in Arlington and most recently, the AL Wild Card in Cleveland. The AL Wild Card game averaged $93, less than 1/3 the cost of the NL Wild Card game.

For example, ALDS tickets the travel channel united states are averaging $167 on the secondary market; Rays ALDS tickets are averaging $160, up 19% in 24 hours.
Should the Rays go deeper into the MLB playoffs, and this trend continues – expect Rays World Series tickets to continue to be right around the average league price. Currently averaging $974, Tampa Bay Rays World Series tickets are the third cheapest of the eight remaining teams.
Atlanta is healthy and Braves fans are excited for this postseason. The Atlanta Braves won its first division title since 2005 this season and while fans may have been upset about losing home field advantage in the NL for half a second, I'm sure they got over it quickly when they saw that had that been true, they'd be facing a very hot Pirates team with an even more enthusiastic fan base.
Atlanta Braves World Series tickets are averaging $1,129 with all three home games currently costing around $350 to get in. Braves prices are in the middle of the pack when comparing average price to the other postseason teams, but have some of the cheapest World Series tickets if you are looking to just grab any seat in the house.
As a large market team, you'd expect Dodgers tickets to be priced at a premium. While that is the case this postseason, Los Angeles Dodgers ticket prices started out as one of the cheapest the travel channel united states teams in the League. And, they remained a top 5 cheapest team in MLB until July. Entering July, Matt Kemp was back in the Dodgers' lineup, rookie Yasiel Puig was making a powerful statement, and the Dodgers had won seven of their last eight.
Those big market prices that we d expect are evident in Dodgers World Series ticket prices. All three home games have an asking price of at least $406 and total, they average $1,333. The Dodgers have both the fourth the travel channel united states most expensive World Series tickets and Division Series tickets (avg. $142).
