Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Yestersday Stubhub reported that it has over 9,000 tickets available for the Yankees’ final regular season game against the Baltimore Orioles scheduled for Sunday, September 21st at Yankee Stadium.

The current average ticket selling price for Orioles-Yankees is $400 although the least expensive ticket was sold in December of 2007 for $30. 

The most expensive ticket sold for the finale was a $3500 ticket sold last month.  Stubhub reports that the Orioles-Yankees game is the best selling MLB game be it regular or postseason in Stubhub history, based on dollar volume. (Although in gross dollars the Yankees All-Star game was higher.)

The best way to get the cheapest possible ticket to the Yankee Stadium finale is to wait until the very last minute.
