baseball-field-828713_960_720I love baseball. I grew up in a baseball house. The New Yorks Mets  games could always count on me  as a viewers. I wish I could go more. It can be very pricey to go to a game.

Some Major League Baseball stadiums cater to their fans with affordable tickets and food prices, others are notorious for some pretty steep charges.

Personal finance website GOBankingRates.com conducted a cost analysis of attending a game at all 30 MLB stadiums, comparing the price of four factors:

  • Two tickets
  • Two hot dogs
  • Two beers
  • Parking

While the average cost of spending a day enjoying America’s pastime is $77.92, fans attending a game at Angel Stadium ofAnaheim pay the cheapest per-game average cost ― $47.60 ― whereas Boston Red Sox fans pay the highest per-game average cost at Fenway Park ― $157.
