It’s cheaper to buy a seat for a Jays’ playoff game in Texas than to drink a beer while watching the playoffs at the Rogers Centre.

A look at Stubhub.com shows there are plenty of seats available for Thursday afternoon’s game in Arlington at Globe Life Park.

There were also still lots of seats available at Stubhub.com for the Friday afternoon game.

Those Arlington tickets are listed foras low as $8 (U.S.).

A beer at the Rogers Centre costs north of $10 (Canadian).

One theory is that season ticket-holders are reselling their ducats because they can’t get out of work for the games, which start at 3:38 local time on Thursday and 12:08 p.m. on Friday.

Prices rise when the teams return to theRogers Centre on Sunday, with the cheapest starting at $100 (U.S.).

Fans have boiled on Twitter about the first-pitch times for the Thursday and Friday games, saying they don’t have time to get to the park.

The secondary ticket marketplace Vivid Seats reports that the median ticket price for a seat at Progressive Field in Arlington is $45 (U.S.) while it’s $237 for Game 3 on Sunday in Toronto.
