It seems the only question people in town are asking is “When are World Series tickets going on sale?”
The Colorado Rockies are officially mum about a schedule for buying tickets for folks who aren’t season-ticket holders. Team officials told fans lining up at the box office Monday that disbursement would be by lottery, with details to be announced.
However, the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Rockies’ opponent in the upcoming National League Championship Series, have already posted information on their website about a World Series ticket lottery.
The Diamondbacks’ registration period, which started Sept. 28, runs through noon Oct. 16. On Oct. 17, the organization will conduct a random selection of individuals from the pool of registrants. Winners will be notified by Oct. 23.
The other teams still playing in baseball’s postseason also have announced their ticket-lottery plans. The Boston Red Sox’s lottery for World Series tickets already has concluded.
