The superstars will be out on both coasts beginning Friday, and you will have to pay a hefty price to see the action.
This year’s World Series will feature the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers – it will be a record 12th time the two historic franchises will meet in the Fall Classic.
Between both rosters, there are 64 All-Star nods, making it one of the most star-studded sporting events ever.

And people are lined up to get to the ballparks.
StubHub says sales on the site for this year’s World Series have quadrupled the Astros-Phillies World Series from 2022, and surpassed sales from last year’s Fall Classic between the Rangers and Diamondbacks.
As of 10 a.m. Tuesday, the average price for a ticket sold on StubHub is $1,667, the highest recorded by the site since 2017 – the get-in price for Game 1 on Friday for one single ticket is $1,170.

TicketIQ says only the Cubs’ World Series season in 2016 was more expensive since they began tracking pricing data – this year’s average price on their site is $3,887, while that Fall Classic averaged $4,557 per ticket.
The site also says the average price for the contests at Yankee Stadium (Games 3, 4 and 5) are averaging $4,875 a pop, the second-most behind only the $6,641 at Wrigley Field from that magical 2016 season. Of course, the prices are high due to a combination of the matchup and the fact that Monday night will mark the first World Series game played in the Bronx since 2009.
Games 1, 2, 6 and 7 at Dodger Stadium are the third-highest ever, at $3,146, even though it’s their fourth World Series since 2017.
