The Tampa Bay Rays pulled off a wild one last night, taking Game 4 of the World Series in 12 innings with a 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers to stay alive. Now, they’re heading into Game 5 tonight, desperate to avoid elimination for a second straight night right there at Tropicana Field. This whole thing is getting intense, but don’t expect to just walk into the ballpark.

Game 5 Tickets Are Still Holding Strong

Even after that crucial, late-night Game 4 win, those Game 5 tickets for the Rays vs. Brewers haven’t budged much, still sitting pretty high. They did see a slight spike in demand after the Rays kept their season going, but you can still snag a few for under $800. If you’re looking for the cheapest seat in the house, tickets start at $732. Wanna feel like you’re practically on the field? Infield seats, like in Section 118, are going to set you back at least $1,230. It’s a steep price for a must-win game, but hey, it’s the World Series!

The Series Just Got Really Real

The Brewers had a commanding lead, taking the first three games: Game 1 went to Milwaukee 3-2, Game 2 was another close one at 5-4 for the Brewers, and Game 3 was a blowout with Milwaukee winning 10-1. Everyone thought it was over. But Ben Williamson’s walk-off single in the twelfth inning of Game 4 changed the vibe completely. Now, tonight, Wednesday, October 28, the Rays host the Brewers at 8 p.m. ET. It’s all on the line. The Rays are fighting to push this thing back to Milwaukee, but if the Brewers win, it’s over. And if you’re thinking about seeing this series potentially go the distance, those future ticket prices are even wilder. Game 6, set for Friday, October 30 in Milwaukee, starts at a mind-boggling $2,446 for standing room only. And if it goes to Game 7 on Saturday, October 31, also in Milwaukee, standing room tickets kick off at $2,278. This series just got a whole lot more expensive to witness in person.
