That comes in second to the home opener tickets for the Boston Red Sox after they clinched the World Series title in 2013. Tickets for that team’s 2014 home opener went for $155 each.

The cheapest tickets for the Chicago Cubs home opener last year after the team’s first World Series title in more than a century went for $85 each.

If you don’t have money to spend on home-opener tickets, prices are much lower for subsequent games, at an average of $40 each, according to TicketIQ. The cheapest tickets are for the Angels series at the end of April, for under $20, bloggers said.
