Brewers–Rays World Series ticket listings start at $812 for Tampa Bay game
Two ticket-price reports show the lowest listed entry for Game 3 in Tampa Bay below the reported prices for games in Milwaukee. The figures vary by marketplace and ticket type.
Tickets for the Milwaukee Brewers’ World Series games against the Tampa Bay Rays showed a sharp difference between venues in reports published October 21: a four-marketplace comparison listed entry to Game 3 in Tampa Bay from $812, while its lowest listing for the October 23 opener in Milwaukee was $2,445. The reports capture changing resale listings ahead of the series, which begins Friday in Milwaukee.
Lowest reported listings for each World Series game
Syracuse.com compared the lowest listings shown by Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, StubHub and Ticketmaster. Its cheapest figure for each scheduled game was:
- Game 1, October 23, Milwaukee: $2,445 on SeatGeek.
- Game 2, October 24, Milwaukee: $2,445 on SeatGeek.
- Game 3, October 26, Tampa Bay: $812 on SeatGeek.
- Game 4, October 27, Tampa Bay: $869 on Vivid Seats.
- Game 5, October 28, Tampa Bay, if necessary: $813 on SeatGeek.
- Game 6, October 30, Milwaukee, if necessary: $2,041 on SeatGeek.
- Game 7, October 31, Milwaukee, if necessary: $2,120 on SeatGeek.
The schedule places the first two games in Milwaukee and the next three in Tampa Bay, before a possible return to Milwaukee for Games 6 and 7. Game 5 would be played only if neither team sweeps the first four games. Syracuse.com listed an 8 p.m. Eastern start for each game; the last three games remain conditional on the series results.
Why the two price reports differ
USA TODAY’s ticket report, republished by Yahoo Sports, gave different starting figures and specified ticket types. For Game 1, it listed standing room from $2,625 and a regular seat from $3,167, against Syracuse.com’s lowest marketplace listing of $2,445. USA TODAY put the cheapest standard seat for Game 2 at $2,679. Syracuse.com’s table identifies marketplaces but does not consistently identify the ticket type behind each lowest figure, so the figures are separate snapshots rather than like-for-like seat prices.
For Game 3, USA TODAY listed a regular seat from $874, while Syracuse.com found a $812 SeatGeek listing. USA TODAY reported starting prices of $894 for Game 4 and $915 for a possible Game 5. Both games are scheduled for Tampa Bay, where the reported entry prices were lower than those for the Milwaukee games in these comparisons.
For a possible Game 6 back in Milwaukee, USA TODAY listed standing room from $2,434 and a regular ticket from $2,760. Its Game 7 figures were $2,332 for standing room and $2,592 for a regular seat; Syracuse.com’s lowest Game 7 listing was $2,120. USA TODAY said prices and availability may change, so none of the listed amounts is a guaranteed purchase price after the reports’ snapshots.
