The Pirates are freezing the prices of individual game tickets for the 2009 season.

Individual game ticket prices to remain the same in 2009

The Pirates are freezing the prices of individual game tickets for the 2009 season.
“We believe that freezing the prices of individual game tickets was the appropriate thing to do in light of the difficult economic climate,” said Pirates President Frank Coonelly. “Pirates baseball is the most affordable, fan- and family-friendly professional sports experience in the region and, by freezing our prices for 2009, we are doing everything we can to make it possible for our fans to enjoy Pirates baseball at PNC Park.”
The 2009 Home Opener is scheduled for Monday, April 13 against the Houston Astros.
The Pirates home schedule also features a three-game Interleague series against the geographical rival Cleveland Indians June 23 through 25.
Individual game tickets will go on sale Saturday, February 21 at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Philadelphia Phillies Can Win 2008 World Series Tonight

Monday, October 27th, 2008

The Philadelphia Phillies are one win away from their second ever World Series Championship, their only series win coming in 1980.   The Phillies lead the Tampa Bay Rays three games to one. 

Philadelphia has not had a professional sports team win its league title since the Philadelphia 76′ers swept the Los Angeles Lakers in 1983. 

Game Five is scheduled for tonight at Citizen’s Bank Park with Cole Hamels pitching for the Phillies and this Game Five is a very hot ticket as fans look to be part of baseball, World Series and Philadelphia history. 

If the Tampa Bay Rays can start hitting and find a way to defeat the Phillies and their ace, the Rays will force Game Six back at Tropicana Field.

Tampa Bay Rays vs Philadelphia Phillies in World Series 2008

Monday, October 20th, 2008

The Tampa Bay Rays and Philadelphia Phillies will play each other in the World Series which begins Wednesday at Tropicana Field.  Even with a historic comeback in Game 5 and a Game 6 win, the ghosts were not with the Boston Red Sox tonight.  Tampa Bay outdueled the Red Sox 3-1 to win Game 7 and the 2008 ALCS and become American League Champions.  This will be Tampa Bay’s first trip to the World Series and has been Tampa’s first trip to the postseason after ten years of futility.  The Rays may believe they can do anything now that they have disposed of the defending world champions in a grueling seven game series.  There are a lot of great young players on both the Phillies and the Devil Rays and it should be a great and evenly matched World Series.
