ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS

Playoff tickets will be cheaper this time around for Diamondbacks

Provided nothing crazy happens, the Arizona Diamondbacks will be heading to the playoffs.

And, as first reported by Arizona Sports 620’s John Gambadoro, you can too for less than it cost in 2007.

Prices for games will range from $12-$140 this year, with the lowest ticket price being a full $8 cheaper than any other team in baseball.

In all tickets will be 24 percent cheaper than they were the last time Arizona reached the postseason.

“Similar to how we worked with Major League Baseball to decrease the price of 2011 All-Star Game tickets compared to previous years, we made sure to keep ticket prices for possible D-backs’ playoff games at Chase Field affordable for fans during the Division Series,” said D-backs’ President & CEO Derrick Hall. “Tickets starting at $12 to attend a playoff game are by far the least expensive among all of the Major League teams in contention to advance to the postseason this year. The D-backs have been industry leaders in making games affordable to attend for the past five seasons and will continue to look at ways to make sure fans can enjoy the exceptional fan experience at Chase Field.”

The division series is the only one where teams control the price of tickets, and the D-backs significantly decreasing prices is just another in a long line of good, fan-friendly decisions made by the team.
