Playoff Tickets

Recommended Posts

I live in California and am thinking about flying to the area for a playoff game. Is anyone familiar with the process of getting tickets? I see that Birdland members get priority (which I'd prefer not to join, not being local), but for non-members, how difficult is it to obtain tickets, either directly or second-hand? Is there a particular ticketing site like Stubhub that's commonly used and reliable (at least with low scam risk) for O's tickets?

I believe seatgeek took over stubhub so just setup an account with seatgeek. 

That is where I bought my tickets in the last month. I literally had them in my email with in 10 mins. In fact the last game I went to, I waited until the morning of to buy them because the price was dropping. I probably could have bought them while standing in line to get in. lol

I also downloaded the MLB app and was able to load my tickets into that app to get scanned for entry. Seatgeek rates the price vs seat so you can tell what the best deals are without looking through 1,000 tickets.

I'm considering one more game next week. (going to the ravens game sunday with seatgeek tickets)

I would expect that email on Wednesday, given that they set a Tuesday deadline to sign up for Birdland Memberships for next year to get playoff tickets for this year.

 Today . Most season ticket holders will get a 2 hour window to buy tickets and as long as you buy them within that window ,you are guaranteed playoff tickets.  World Series tickets will not be sold at that time only WC, ALCS and ALDS. World Series would be a later date .

I am confused on what a Birdland Membership is. I was thinking about a small season ticket package next year of 8 games or less but couldn't figure out how to do that. 

Things like what games could I pick and what seats could I pick.

The Birdland Flex Membership is basically pre-paying for tickets, then you can choose what games and what seats, and are able to purchase at a discounted rate.

Birdland Memberships took the place of small game number season tickets.. like Sunday only etc 

 

It works like an HSA.. you put money in 600, 1200, 2500 increments and in 2024 you can then pick any seats or any games and use the allotment you paid in.

PRINT THE PLAYOFF TICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Technically not yet.   We aren't assured of a postseason home game until we clinch being at least the #1 wild card.   Because the wild card best of 3 series are played exclusively on the higher seeded team's home field.

The smallest package you can get for fixed games is for 13 individual games.

However they also have something now called "Flex" memberships.  Where you just put a big deposit down up front (packages start at $600) and then you can use that money throughout the season to buy tickets.  If you don't spend it all though you would lose it.

    • I was at a meeting and came out to the Orioles down 1-0. I looked away for what seemed like a minute and it was 5-0, then 7-0. Do we know why Burnes was lifted after just 69 pitches after 5 innings? Was he hurt? Do we know why Cano was brought into the game in the 6th (Have to imagine his adrenaline may not have been as flowing at that stage of the game)?  Obviously the bullpen was pretty horrific last night, but could some of this be because Hyde was using guys who typically are late in game relievers in the 6th inning?  
    • Good point on the age.  I think it would have to be someone like Nate George from this year's draft just blowing up next year. The story would be how everyone missed on him because he played in a cold weather state.    
    • First, Schmidt is having a better year than Cole. Second, the O's teed off Ragans and Lugo last time they faced them.
    • Elias needs to use better judgement when he dumpster dives, prepare better for the high percentage chance that his dumpster diving pickups will fail, and increase usage of other means to get pieces. Bullpen usage is another problem, but it’s hard to effectively juggle flaming torches. A wrong move burns badly 
    • I can see the case for Mountcastle based on defense alone, but what has Kjerstad done to warrant that kind of treatment? Is it the .505 OPS he’s put up since coming back? The overall .438 ML OPS since getting hit in the head? I’m as bummed as anyone that his season got derailed, but if you’re talking about where they are right now — he’s not your huckleberry. As for O’Hearn, he’s 8 for his last 23 (.348), with 3 doubles. That feels a little like the “getting himself together” that you referenced. He had an awful month-long slump, but he also has an extended track record (over 1.5 seasons) of excelling in the role he’s now back in, as the platoon LH 1B/DH guy. He had a 125 wRC+ in those 750 PAs as an Oriole until 8/20, which is roughly when Mountcastle went out.  I’d be good with Kjerstad DHing against LH starters, because there’s good reason to think he hits them better than O’Hearn. And if they want to play both O’Hearn and Kjerstad against some RHPs, in order to set up the potential of Mountcastle coming in to PH against a lefty reliever, I’m down for that too. But the primary alignment is going to (and should) be the Mountcastle/O’Hearn duo we’ve gotten accustomed to seeing.
    • The Achilles heel for this team is going to be the unit that doesn't step up in the postseason. I can easily see scenarios where: the bullpen is hot and provides good performances but the offense sputters and isn't clutch the offense comes up big but the bullpen blows games late starting pitching tosses some clunkers (not really likely with Burnes and Eflin) and they can't recover the defense sucks and gives opponents extra outs to work with, blowing games open when the bullpen or SP would have been able to escape and continue We've seen all of these units falter at one point or another during this season.  We've also seen all of these units perform very well at different times throughout the season.  So, we'll see what turns out to be the Achilles heel for the Orioles in the playoffs starting next week.
