**Yankees Limit Playoff Ticket Sales to Nearby States** Canadian baseball fans hoping to attend a Blue Jays playoff game in New York may face challenges. The New York Yankees are restricting ticket sales for potential American League Division Series (ALDS) games at Yankee Stadium to residents of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. This policy has raised concerns among fans from other regions, particularly those from Canada. The Toronto Blue Jays will host Games 1 and 2 of the ALDS this weekend at Rogers Centre after clinching the American League East division title. They will face either the Yankees or the Boston Red Sox, who are competing in a best-of-three wild card series starting Tuesday. Tickets for potential Games 3 and 4 at Yankee Stadium are not available to Canadian fans. A Ticketmaster spokesperson explained that geographic restrictions are sometimes implemented to ensure local fans have the best chance to attend. This policy has frustrated Boston fans as well, since it applies to all games at Yankee Stadium. Toronto fans looking to attend games in New York will need to rely on the secondary market for tickets. In contrast, the Red Sox do not impose similar restrictions. A Red Sox spokesperson confirmed, "We do not limit purchase eligibility at Fenway Park." The Yankees' ticket policy has drawn comparisons to a similar situation in 2023 when the Toronto Maple Leafs faced the Florida Panthers in the NHL playoffs. At that time, the Panthers initially limited ticket sales to U.S. residents but later opened sales to the general public. As for ticket prices, resale tickets for Game 1 of the ALDS at Rogers Centre start at $300. For potential games at Yankee Stadium, prices begin at $107, while secondary market sites like StubHub list tickets starting at $72. If the Red Sox win their series against the Yankees, Canadian fans will be able to purchase tickets for games at Fenway Park. A representative for the Red Sox stated, "The Red Sox and Boston will not be turning away fans from other states or out of the country to purchase tickets." However, ticket prices at Fenway Park are also steep, with tickets starting at $238 for the first of two potential home games in the ALDS. The Major League Baseball playoffs are set to continue, with the World Series beginning on October 24. Fans are eager to see how the playoff brackets will unfold as teams vie for a chance at the championship.
