+1. I did a little online research. To sit field level inside the baselines for the Dodgers buying tickets directly from the team online is $398 for a family of three, plus $15-$30 to park, plus food and drink. And that isn't even the best seating--that would be the dugout club seating, which runs hundreds more per seat. Even loge seating, which is a deck above the field, starts at $82 a seat. The worst seats in the house are twenty five bucks each [though in fairness, the gangbanger intimidation and beat-downs are free of charge in those seating locations]. it is crazy, just far too expensive for a middle class purchaser to even consider taking the family to a game.
