If you’re looking for a deal for either one three Texas Rangers World Series games at Texas Stadium this weekend or one of the last two San Francisco Giants World Series games set for Wednesday November 3rd and 4th at AT&T Park, good luck.

Fans responded after the Giants win in the first game of the World Series last night by buying up Giants World Series tickets right after the game. The fewer seats resulted in prices going up by almost $100 per ticket by morning. And the prices never came down.

 The winner of today’s game will determine whether the Rangers tickets or the Giants ticket prices go up immediatly after the game. If the San Francisco Giants take the game you can expect a jump in ticket prices for game 6 and 7 of the World Series. And if the Texas Rangers take the game today then the already high Rangers World Series tickets will surely go up as well for games 3, 4 and 5 at Rangers Ballpark.

The cheapest World Series tickets are for game 5 at Rangers Ballpark with the ticket prices currently running around $400 for a standing room only ticket. The most expensive World Series game is in Texas also, with the price of Saturday’s game running over $500 a ticket.

As one of the leading providors of World Series tickets we get a lot of calls about the World Series and currently the most asked question is why the World Series tickets are so expensive. The main reason of course is supply and demand. There will always be more fans looking for World Series tickets than there are seats available. And for the Giants vs Rangers World Series it’s no different.

Another reason for the high prices for World Series tickets is the size of many of today’s new baseball ballparks. Rangers Ballpark in Arlington will seat 49,000 fans and there is room for several thousand standing room only spaces. And at AT&T Park in San Francisco the seating capacity is only about 42,000 for a San Francisco Giants team that has fans throughout Northern California.

The new ballparks have up to 30%  fewer seats than the stadiums that they have replaced. The former home of the San Francisco Giants had a capacity of 69,000 fans and across the bay in Oakland the capacity for Oakland Athletics baseball is set a 35,000, but get a World Series there and the seating will go up over 63,000. If the Yankees had made the World Series they would have put over 52,000 fans in Yankee Stadium.

World Series ticket holders get a much better view from any of the seats compared to the larger ballparks, but the fans looking for World Series tickets have to pay more because of the lack of available seats.

Ticket prices for both teams took a bit of a dip today but that may be short lived as tickets are still selling well. The first games are the most popular and the most expensive for tickets for the World Series at either ballpark. Standing room seats are currently running over $500 apiece for the Rangers Ballpark home opener on Saturday and $450 for the AT&T home opener this Wednesday.

San Francisco Giants tickets for their World Series games at AT&T Park are on sale now and the best time to buy your Giants World Series tickets may be before today’s game. If the Giants beat the Phillies today you can expect the price of tickets to jump just as they have every time the Giants moved up the playoff ladder.

But in past playoff games the Giants ticket prices have fluctuated a bit. That was until today’s game which could send the Giants to the World Series tonight and ticket prices soaring. The price of World Series tickets does not usually go down as the games get closer especially with today’s small baseball parks and the 41,900 AT&T Park will be a tough ticket.

If you buy San Francisco Giants World Series tickets today you may get a better deal than if you wait until they beat the Phillies. You can get a full refund if the game is not played as long as you buy your World Series tickets from a reliable ticket service. 

And the game will not be over until after 7:30 so if you place an order tonight for World Series tickets you may not know if your order went through until the morning because most of the ticket companies will be closed at that time. So if you’re considering buying San Francisco Giants World Series tickets you better think fast, before prices are jacked up once again.
