With baseball season around the corner, personal finance website GOBankingRates identified the most and least expensive MLB stadiums to visit in America. The study revealed that Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies, is the least expensive stadium to watch an MLB game, while visiting Yankee Stadium will cost fans the most.
GOBankingRates identified Yankee Stadium and Safeco Field as the most expensive stadiums to watch an MLB game in America.
To determine the rankings, GOBankingRates calculated the average cost to visit each stadium by taking the average of the three cheapest 2018 season ticket seat options and dividing that number by 81 home games. GOBankingRates then multiplied this number by two attendees and added the price of parking, food and beverages.
