The Los Angeles Dodgers are about to host Game 3 of the NLCS on Wednesday night, and they are stuck in a 0-2 hole.
After Monday night’s 7-4 loss to the Brewers, ticket prices for Game 3 have plummeted down in price and the team is trying every measure possible to draw fans in.
Including by giving away free adult beverages.
According to Edward Lewis of The Post, Dodgers fans were lining up near a red Budweiser tent that was located in the concourse of Dodger Stadium and were being given free beer.
Along with the free beverage, fans were also receiving free blue Dodgers-Budweiser koozies as part of the marketing promotion.
The line for the free items extended well off into the concourse as more fans were seen patiently lining up as they were discovering what was being given away.
Before the two teams played a single game in the NLCS, the cost for Game 3 was originally listed at $144.
But as Milwaukee has been shocking the world, putting together back-to-back wins, the cost for Game 3 isn’t as high anymore.
On Wednesday, Front Office Sports reported that ticket prices dropped by 47% after Monday’s 7-4 loss and are now costing fans $97 to get into the stadium.
After sweeping the Brewers in the NLCS last year, the Dodgers have their backs against the wall and could find themselves in desperation mode if they fall one game shy of being eliminated.
Left-handed pitcher Blake Snell will get the start for the Dodgers on Wednesday night, and he too is looking for redemption after tossing only 3 ⅔ innings on 90 pitches in Game 2 of the NLDS against the Atlanta Braves.
Aside from Snell, four time MVP Shohei Ohtani, who has been struggling throughout the postseason, will hit in the No. 6 spot of the Dodgers lineup after the team was reportedly considering benching him following Monday night’s game.
