When the New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals get together, it will mark the first confrontation between two of the American League’s elite clubs in Yankee Stadium following this past weekend’s three-game set at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City. In fact, they own two of the best records in the league and sit atop their respective divisions in first place following the series in which the Royals took two of three from the Yanks.
As a result, it’s easy to figure that tickets for this upcoming three-game set at Yankee Stadium will be highly sought after, as this series looks like it will be the biggest test the Yankees have had through the first handful of weeks of the 2015 campaign.
When seeking out tickets for any games in this series, your best bet for the cheapest ticket prices will be from the Yankees, rather than dealing with the secondary market. Some seats even feature a significant margin between the two sources.
For instance, for the series finale on May 27, if you wanted to sit in the 200-level section, you could get tickets in section 215, row 11 from Yankees.com for $155, while seats in section 215, row 15 on the secondary market would cost you $266, which is a savings of over $100! There are similar differences for that same game, as seats in section 106, row 10 are priced at $110 through the Yankees, compared to $160 out on the secondary market for similar location in section 106, row 13. Again, that’s a monumental price margin.
Additionally, if you wanted to keep it simple and reside in the 400-level seats, you could get tickets for section 410, row 4 in the opener on May 25 for only $22 from the Yankees, while tickets for section 410, row 1 would cost you $29 from another seller.
Unsurprisingly, this trio of games might draw some of the biggest Yankee Stadium crowds of the year. New York is coming off their first back-to-back seasons of not making the playoffs for the first time since the mid-1990’s, so their strong start certainly has everyone in the organization, and the fans of course, rejuvenated and excited for what’s ahead.
The Royals have been just as terrific thus far, however, and will be game for the task of taking on another AL behemoth. They’ve received great play on both sides of the ball, having among the highest team batting average in all of baseball and one the AL’s best team ERA marks. They won the American League pennant last season before going down in the maximum seven games in the World Series, and up to this point, they’re proving it was no fluke whatsoever. This series could determine who the true superpower in the league is right now as we march closer towards June.
