Tickets released for April 8th and 9th Sox games
As the Red Sox often do, they have released tickets for tonight's 2nd game of the season against the Rays at Fenway. As of 5:20 a.m. on Wednesday, April 8th, there were plenty of good seats together in Outfield Grandstand Section 9, Row 9 ($30 each), Infield Grandstand Section 29, Row 9 ($50 each), Right Field Box 89 ($50 each), and for $90 each there are seats in the upper level Pavilion Box and Loge Box. However, the Loge Box seats available, while directly behind home plate and only 15 rows from the field, have a very annoying walkway obstruction with fans walking back and forth in front of you for much of the game.
For Thursday's 1:35 p.m. game, the only seats available were Infield Grandstand Section 29 (very good seats for $50 each), but if you check back later today or early tomorrow morning there are likely to be more tickets made available.
Go to the Red Sox Web site to purchase tickets.
As always, you should have the Fenway Ultimate Fan's Guide in hand so you will know if your seats will have a pole obstruction, and you will know exactly how many rows from the field your seats will be before you buy them. The book can be purchased through Amazon or immediately as a downloadable eBook. See the column on the right under the book cover for all the ways to buy the book.
As of this morning there were no tickets (other than a few scattered single seats) available for the first home weekend series of the year, April 17th to the 20th against Baltimore, but check the Red Sox Web site early in the morning of April 16th and 17th and there are likely to be tickets available.

Red Sox, Aramark freeze concession prices for 2009, offer half-price food in April for 1 hour after gates open
The Red Sox recently announced that they have reached an agreement with Aramark, the concessionaire for Fenway Park, to keep the price of food sold inside the park at the same levels as 2008. This is a nice gesture and a nod to the economic recession. It follows the announcement in December that the Red Sox would not raise ticket prices for this year. In truth, the Red Sox have only raised ticket prices slightly for most of the seats in the ballpark in the past several years anyway. Infield Grandstand, Outfield Grandstand, Bleacher and Right Field Box tickets are at most $5 more than they were 5 years ago. This should make Red Sox fans very happy that they are not Yankee or Met fans, given the astronomical price of tickets for their new stadiums.
In addition to keeping food prices inside the park the same as last year, the Red Sox announced that some items will be half-price for the first hour after the gates open during April. These items include Fenway Franks, pretzels, popcorn, and pizza slices. This is another very nice gesture that will save fans some money, and it would be even better if the team kept the policy for the entire year.
