Yankees' best seats eclipse $100
Sat, Nov. 26, 2005
NEW YORK - Supporting baseball's biggest payroll will mean an increase in ticket prices for the New York Yankees, who are boosting the price of many of their best box seats past $100.
The Yankees said Friday they are raising the price of their box seats closest to the field by $5 to $20, depending on their row and location.
The seats, known as field championship boxes, will sell for $110, $105, $100 and $95, increasing from $90 last season.
New York's best regular seats, which include waiter service, are available only as part of season ticket plans.
New York had a payroll of about $205 million last season, when it lost to the Los Angeles Angels in the first round of the playoffs. The Yankees had 43 sellouts at home and drew an AL record 4,090,696 fans at home last season.
