Cost to attend a game. (Just noticed this was from using 2023 data, guessing it has gone up for all)
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the most costly team to see, costing $219 for a family of four. The Miami Marlins are the least expensive team at $83.
The most affordable Boston Red Sox tickets cost $35.90, on average. That's double the overall MLB average cheap ticket price of $17.67.
When the New York Yankees are on the road, ticket prices for the competing home team have the largest increase of any other visiting team.
Attending a game between "natural rivals," such as a Chicago Cubs vs. Chicago White Sox, costs families an average of $48 more.
Seeing a game on a weekday rather than a weekend (Fri-Sun) can save families $25, on average.
Family Outing Expenses by MLB Team
While MoneyGeek found that the average price is $140, the cost of a family day out at an MLB game can vary significantly depending on the team. For example, attending a Los Angeles Dodgers game costs $218 when factoring in the cost of four tickets, parking, four hot dogs, two beers and two sodas. At the other end of the spectrum, a trip to a Miami Marlins game totals $83 for the same expenses.
