Resale ticket prices for Game 1 of the World Series appear to have come down as first pitch approaches but you will still have to shell out big if you want to get inside the Rogers Centre tonight.

As of 6 p.m., the cheapest verified resale ticket available on Ticketmaster was going for $1,009.

That would put you one of the very last rows of Section 531, row 31 to be exact.

If you are OK going without a seat and cheering on the Jays from one of the general admissions areas in the Rogers Centre, so-called “outfield district” tickets are still available for approximately $900 on Ticketmaster.

That represents a significant premium on the $345 box office price for those tickets when they first went on sale earlier this week.

If you want to sit in the lower bowl, the cheapest resale tickets available on Ticketmaster as of 4 p.m. were listed for $1,700.

Fans had the chance to buy tickets to Toronto’s four potential home games at Rogers Centre on Tuesday before they sold out within 30 minutes. Some fans previously told CTV News that they were able to snag face value tickets in the 500 Level—the cheapest tickets on offer—for $495 (plus taxes and fees).

At one point, the cheapest seats at the Rogers Centre were listed on resale websites for approximately $2,000. While that price has come down a bit, the tickets are still fetching a hefty premium with hours to go until game time.
