The New York Yankees are set to open the American League Division Series at Yankee Stadium on Saturday night, October 5, at 6:38 p.m. They’ll face off against the Kansas City Royals with Game 2 following on Monday, October 7, at 7:38 p.m.
The Yankees locked up the American League’s top seed with a 94-68 record, and they’ll have home-field advantage as they take on the winner of the Royals-Orioles Wild Card series. Kansas City currently leads that best-of-three set, with Game 2 happening today and a potential winner-takes-all Game 3 scheduled for Thursday.
How to buy Tickets for ALDS games
Tickets for the ALDS games at Yankee Stadium are expected to be a hot commodity, but there are still options available through the secondary market. VividSeats.com is one place where fans can find tickets for both Saturday’s opener and Monday’s follow-up. Ticket prices are starting at around $100, but it’s worth noting that resale platforms like VividSeats often have additional fees—sometimes as much as 56% on top of the original ticket price. Make sure to double-check those extra costs before locking in your seats.
This year’s Yankees squad is led by Aaron Judge, who’s coming off another impressive season, and Gerrit Cole, who’s set to anchor the starting rotation. With a talented roster and momentum from a strong finish to the regular season, New York looks poised to make a deep postseason run. Several pitchers were also released by the Yankees this Wednesday, adding to the recent roster adjustments.
Game 3 and Game 4, if necessary, will shift to either Kansas City or Baltimore on October 9 and 10. Should the series stretch out, Game 5 would also be on the road on October 12, with potential Game 6 and Game 7 back in the Bronx on October 14 and 15.
For Yankees fans, this ALDS is the next step in what they hope will be a return to glory. With Yankee Stadium buzzing and the Bronx Bombers aiming to bring a title back to New York, it’s an atmosphere that shouldn’t be missed. Tickets are out there, but as always with the postseason, sooner is better if you want to be part of the action.
