Ticket Prices for NLCS Game 4 Plummet 50% as Dodgers Face Elimination

With the Dodgers down 3-0 to the Brewers in the NLCS, resale get-in prices for Thursday's Game 4 at Dodger Stadium have collapsed from $156 to $77 in days.

Ticket Prices for NLCS Game 4 Plummet 50% as Dodgers Face Elimination

The cost of watching the Dodgers try to save their season has fallen off a cliff. Tickets to Game 4 of the National League Championship Series at Dodger Stadium have lost half their value in a matter of days as Los Angeles fell into a 3-0 series hole against the Milwaukee Brewers.

According to TicketData.com, the cheapest available seat for Thursday night's game was listed at $156 as recently as Sunday. It slipped to $99 before Game 3 began on Wednesday, then dropped to $77 shortly after Milwaukee's 6-2 victory pushed the Dodgers to the edge of elimination.

The Dodgers watched a 2-1 Game 3 lead slip away on Wednesday night, and now must win four straight to keep alive their bid to become the first team in 26 years to win three consecutive World Series. Milwaukee, meanwhile, can book its first World Series trip since 1982 — when the franchise was still in the American League — with a win tonight. A Dodgers victory would force a Game 5 in Los Angeles on Friday.

The price slide is striking given the crowd's loyalty: Los Angeles led the majors in attendance for the 13th straight season, drawing a franchise-record 4.03 million fans, including 14 sellouts and 40 crowds of at least 50,000 at the sport's largest ballpark, where the 81-game average was 49,805.

While Los Angeles tickets crater, optimism in Milwaukee is surging. Resale prices for a potential World Series Game 1 at American Family Field on October 23 have climbed 21 percent over three days to $1,317, according to the same data.
