Got a 9am email saying presale starts at 10am.

As a plan holder who didn't renew it got no email and the link doesn't appear until right at ten. I get the presale but I have to find out about it on my own.

Ok, so I did not miss a heads up. That's ridiculous, by the way, not giving us a day's warning.

Is there a link to the prices for single games?

Playoff games are not like the regular season. Very few opposing fans, even for the mighty Dodgers.

Way too many Giant fans at game 2, 2014.

Well, one is too many for me but I was there and don't remember that.

I received a heads up email yesterday at 10am.

With a name like WanderSoto, I would figure the Nats would comp you in the family area.

thanks. I thought with one-time access, I could not log in to check prices then log back in to buy tickets.

In the past it has worked that way but not this time apparently.

At least those were just vegans in panda hats (to borrow a phrase), the real scourge was the Cardinals fans in 2012. I'll be curious to see the mix on Sunday.

Monday is officially at 6:40, if we make it that far. StubHub prices continue to slowly drop while inventory has increased.

Weather does not look ideal for Monday.

Good SoCal teams love perfect weather.

No worries, we're all going to die a fiery Trumpian death before first pitch so your accounting won't matter.

I'd still vote for him.

Lerner saw the ticket sales for tomorrow and had Martinez swap Sanchez with Scherzer.

PowerBoater69 · « **Reply #165:** October 06, 2019, 07:06:05 PM »

The Nats just announced more tickets released for tomorrow. Meanwhile tickets are on StubHub for the game tonight for a lot less than I paid.

I do. A completely crapfaced Giants fan started punching people in a bathroom on the 300 level. Pretty typical behavior of most California sports fans, but still pretty ballsy on the road.

Looking at available seats I don't see the #Nats selling out tomorrow, which is good, sends a message to ownership that they out priced the market.

lol …

This is one of the richest places in the world. The Nats didn't out price the market. No one wants to see another choke job by this team.

Don't worry, just like last night, the Dodgers fans will fill it in.

Not going to sell out, StubHub prices crashed over night.

Doesn't MLB set prices for play off games or is it just the WS?

Ali the Baseball Cat · « **Reply #172:** October 07, 2019, 08:14:40 AM »

Maybe I need to try getting my kicks with ticket arbitrage rather than trying to enjoy attending ballgames

I'm not sure but I'd think that the individual teams would have much more local market data to make those decisions.

There was a collision last night between two out-of-service trains on the blue/orange line between Foggy Bottom and Farragut West, they are single tracking this morning with massive delays.
