I was lucky enough to win the lottery. My question is can you buy 2 and 2 tickets for the same game as someone mentioned earlier instead of 4 tickets all at once. I thought once you got an opportunity to buy tickets you only got one chance, so you had to buy all four tickets at one time. This is confusing and stressful. Is a good stress, but nonetheless stressful.

You can only buy tickets to one game, I believe. Whether it is 2 or 4, you can only choose one game.

EDIT: Sorry, I misunderstood your question. I think you only get one transaction. When I was buying for the ALDS, I had looked at tickets and released them without buying them and it was telling me that I had already bought tickets and could not buy any more. I eventually got back in, but it drove me crazy for a few minutes.

I am uncertain. But buy all four either way. I am so glad you won. Seriously. No matter what tickets they give you.

Correct. All in one transaction.

Thanks, Michael. I'll certainly take your advice. All buy all four tickets with one transaction. :thumbsup1:

Yes. You should. Bless you. Glad you won. Get in early and text me if you have issues. Make sure you have no blocking software for the site you are on. Not just the page. The whole domain needs to be white-listed.

I'm so excited. I still can't believe it that I was a winner. I don't care where my seats are as long as I'm in the park. So cool. :)

Thanks for your kind words and again for your help. You're such a great guy.

I don't know if anyone answered the exact question you asked. The answer (assuming it works the same as ALDS) is NO. Once you add tickets to your cart for a game, even if under 4 tickets, you cannot add more tickets to your cart for that game. I tried to do exactly what you're suggesting. I believe it threw an error immediately when i tried to search another pair of tickets for a game I had already added a pair to my cart for.

One way around it might be to select the option that allows for scattered seats...but you might get four singles that way, I don't know.

I ended up dumping a good pair I had in my cart when I realized I could not add another pair for the same game to get to the limit of four...only to be unable to get four due to lack of inventory, then settling for a restricted view pair since anything close to what I had originally was long gone.

Read the text of the e-mail you received indicating you won the lottery...it should say if you can buy tix to multiple games. If yes...once you've added tickets for one game to your cart, you can click the "schedule" link near the upper right, select another game, search tickets for that game, and add those to your cart as well. If the e-mail says otherwise...well, it's worth a try anyway. But once you complete a purchase with that code, you won't be able to complete another.

As long as you keep taking actions your cart won't time out...don't let it sit too long. As I said in an earlier post on this thread...my advice is to go "Best Available" and take whatever comes, especially if trying to go to multiple games...add to cart and move on to the next game...if you get picky about seats and throw something back you may get shut out of one or more games.

      There were men on 1st and 3rd with one out  O’Neil hits a homer 12% of the time vs lefties which is what they would have been needed to win the game.  A single just puts the winning run on 2nd maybe third most likely in Fenway a double won’t score him with the wall unless he hits it the other way which he doesn’t do.  As good as he is he still just gets a hit 33% of the time Yoshida  even though he doesn’t hit well vs them doesn’t strike out and he has 5 GIDP in 385 plate which ranks him 155th out of 178 qualified hitters with 400 at bats.  So the chances of getting a double play are very slim.   In order to win the game you have these scenarios and percentage based on splits.   1 O’Neil to hit a homer 12%  2. O’neil to get a hit 32% and Yoshida get a hit 20%(30% if Refsynder pinch hits) or Jansen to get a hit 25% 3. Walk O’Neil  20% Yoshida gets a hit or 25% Jansen gets a hit  So statistically it shows these percentages for Boston to win Pitch to O’Neil and he homers 12%  Pitch to O’Neil and they get two hits to win 14%  Walk him and face Yoshida and Jansen and one of them get a hit 22%  That is without factoring in wild pitch walk or an error which makes walking him a worse decision.

      That's how everyone should be looking at it. Yet, inexplicably, there are people here who think we should have more wins because...Hyde.

      Twins cut minor league catcher after he tips pitches

      That loss eliminated them from playoff contention. He also keeps his signing bonus. Maybe pro ball wasn't his dream? Still a crap thing to do to his teammates.

      I think the other thing is that you have to know a little bit about Dean’s personality in these press scrums.  I think he’s a very bright guy. And I think he has a tendency to come off like…someone who knows he’s a very bright guy. He can get a little dismissive and sarcastic if they ask questions he thinks are dumb. A little bit of the hipster style “well, ACTUALLY…” He does it to some degree earlier in this same interview, when they asked if he was frustrated about the two out walks and his response was basically “I actually don’t like any walks in general.” I think that’s what happened here. I think he perceived it as a dumb question, and I think his response is mostly just him politely explaining why it was a dumb question to ask him.

      I'm not a fan of the way Hyde handles the bullpen and his (or are they the FO's) lineups often drive me nuts. Having said that, he's done a really good job overall as the O's skipper. If somebody told you at the beginning of the year we'd lose half of our top pitchers to injury and our hitters would be one of the worst teams with RISP would you think we'd only be two games out of 1st place in mid-September?
