Ticket For Yankee Stadium Finale Going For $65,000
Game Against Baltimore On Sept. 21 Scheduled For 8:05 p.m., To Be Carried By ESPN
NEW YORK (AP) ―
Yankee Stadium's regular-season finale will be a night game.
The Yankees' Sept. 21 game against the Baltimore Orioles has been scheduled for 8:05 p.m. and will be televised nationally by ESPN or ESPN2 as part of their Sunday night package.
The game was listed as TBA on the original schedule and was selected by ESPN just before the All-Star break, MLB senior vice president Katy Feeney said Wednesday.
If New York fails to qualify for the postseason, it will be the last game at the Yankees' longtime home.
Up to $65,000 was being asked for a ticket to the game on Wednesday on Stubhub.com, with the lowest price $265.
