MLB Tickets for Sale

Get your fix of America's pastime when you buy MLB Tickets. Major League Baseball (MLB) was founded when the American League (AL) and National League (NL) joined together in 1903. Since then, it has remained the most popular baseball league in the world, surpassing the viewership numbers of similar leagues across the globe.

Throughout the decades, MLB ticket sales have never truly fallen off. The league has survived numerous major upheavals, including WW1, WW2, the Great Depression, the Spanish Flu pandemic and the COVID-19 pandemic. The success of the MLB is owed to superstars who regularly redefine the sport through their skill in the field, at the plate or on the pitcher's mound. Just a few of the most notable stars in baseball history include Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, Hank Aaron, Barry Bonds and Ichiro Suzuki.

When it comes to getting the best baseball tickets, the World Series is often considered the Holy Grail, though most fans would be happy to see an ALDS or NLDS matchup in their home stadium as well. The World Series is a seven-game series that pits the winner of the National League against the winner of the American League. These games take place on an alternating schedule at each team's home stadium. To date, the New York Yankees have claimed the most World Series titles with a whopping 27 rings, while the Washington Nationals are the most recent team to capture their first-ever World Series – a feat that they accomplished in 2019.

But baseball and the MLB aren't just about putting a checkmark in the win column. More so than any other sport, baseball is about having a great time with friends and family. Nowhere is this more exemplified than in spring training games. Spring training takes the traditional AL and NL divisions and scrambles them up into the Grapefruit League and Cactus League. The Cactus League is made up of teams that host spring training games in Arizona, and the Grapefruit League is comprised of teams who host spring training games in Florida. These games are always a hit with baseball fans, who come to watch them in droves to fill the void of the MLB offseason.

No matter what MLB game you are looking to attend, you can rest assured that TicketSmarter has the best MLB tickets for you to choose from. So take me out to the ball game, it's time to watch some baseball at your favorite team's home field.

MLB Ticket Prices

As America’s pastime, attending Major League Baseball games is one of the highlights of the American live sporting experience. The popularity of the sport creates a high demand for tickets, especially when your local team is doing well. Some of the factors that can affect MLB ticket prices include the teams playing in a game, the stadium location, the seating capacity, seating location and if the game is held during the regular season or the MLB Postseason.

MLB Dates & Schedule

The MLB schedule consists of a regular season and the MLB Postseason. The schedule lasts from March through October and ends with the World Series. The bulk of the schedule is made up of 162 regular-season games for every team. Each team in the league will play 81 games at their home stadium and 81 games at away stadiums. The top 5 teams from the American League and National League will enter the postseason at the beginning of October to claim the pennant of their respective leagues. The two league champions will then end the scheduled year competing in the World Series.

MLB Spring Training games also take place before the season in February. Teams are allocated into either the Cactus League in Arizona or the Grapefruit League in Florida. Teams will compete against the other teams in their respective leagues in order for veteran players to get in-game reps and allow the coaches and managers to make roster adjustments.

When do MLB tickets go on sale?

Tickets for the MLB season will become available sometime in December and February. That is when the MLB will confirm the schedule announcement with matchups, game dates and start times. TicketSmarter will have tickets available for every MLB game on the schedule, allowing you to skip the lines at the box office on game day!

Where to Buy Last-Minute MLB Tickets

While most events require that you get tickets as soon as possible in order to avoid a sold-out event, baseball is a bit more unique. The league's lengthy 162-game season means that it is uncommon for games to sell out unless it is a notable match-up between playoff-bound teams. Because of that, you can safely wait until the last minute to get a great deal on many baseball games. If you plan to wait until the eve of the game, research has shown that ticket prices are often at their lowest three to 14 days before the event.

While most MLB games may not sell out, you definitely don’t want to take a chance when it comes to playoff games, the MLB All-Star Game, the Home Run Derby or opening day tickets. All of these games are high-demand events and tend to sell out almost immediately. If you're waiting to add one of these events to your calendar, don’t delay! Get your MLB tickets from TicketSmarter now so you don't miss out on a thrilling spectacle at your favorite stadium.
