    ...so who won the lottery? Who's selling? and did the scalpers just swoop in and buy all the tickets? $225 + fees on StubHub for tickets.

    Can I blame all the Red Sox fans? Joke is on them if we catch Cleveland.

    Crane has to get them ticket prices up to pay for the core.

    Not yet. The Red Sox could catch them especially with four games to close in Boston.

    Same here.

    I'm sure more tix will be made available on the secondary market once they set the game-times (most likely an mid afternoon start, with games 1-2 on a weekday), as there is an inconvenience factor.

    One 'advantage' of not having home field is that their home games would be over the weekend.

    I was selected as part of a group of fans that were able to buy from 11am-11:59am. When they emailed me the link, they gave me a password to enter in order to buy tickets before 12pm when they became public. The password would not work....by the time I was able to get back on the site after 12pm, there were no two tickets together for the first two games. Now the cheapest Stub hub is $60 for nose bleed, when astros.com had them at $35

    If we're matched up with the Red Sox or Yankees in the first round, I sincerely doubt they put us in an afternoon timeslot.

    My buddy bought me and my fiance tickets but forgot to check the date with us. We are out of town, he might be looking to sell. I believe they were $150 each, sec 132 or something. Let me know if you want me to look into it.

    Edit: It was for the ALDS game Oct. 6th.

    You would think, but, assuming the Yankees get out of the WC, every division series will have one of redsox, Yankees, dodgers, or cubs. No clear St. Louis- Houston type match up for mlb to screw over.
