There are always scalpers lining 35th St. as you walk to the park. The scalpers did not have any $10 tickets which was the highest I was willing to pay. I found a fan with a $42 face value ticket and offered him $10. He declined the offer. Next I found a fan with some extras in the upper deck. He handed me a single for free. With some effort, you can find free tickets around the stadium. However, you should be willing to pay something just in case you cannot find the freebies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cleveland Indians defeated the Chicago White Sox 11-8 last night.
