ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — So, this is kinda embarrassing. In most markets, a pennant race means fans flock to the box office to snatch up the best seats in the house.
Around here, a pennant race means the Rays need to drop ticket prices to give the illusion that Tropicana Field is somewhat close to filled.
They’ve now done this two years in a row. In 2021, they offered seats for $10 on the final homestand. This season, they’re offering some seats for as little as $9 with additional discounts elsewhere, including on concessions and parking.
