ALDS Tickets

When American League Division Series tickets go on sale, they typically sell out fast, so be sure to buy yours today. There are two divisions in Major League Baseball, the American League and the National League. Both leagues have the same bracket during the MLB Postseason before meeting up in the World Series. One of the main differences between the two leagues is within the American League (AL) there is a designated hitter, usually called a DH, whereas the National League (NL) includes the pitcher in the batting order. The ALDS is played in the MLB Postseason directly following the MLB Wildcard game. There are four teams that play in the ALDS out of a possible 15. The two winners of the ALDS game moves on to the American League Championship Series before finally ending up at the MLB World Series. When playing for the ALDS pennant, baseball teams play a minimum of three games or best out of five. Be sure to buy your American League Division Series tickets from TicketSmarter.
