Braves put standing-room-only tickets on sale for Sunday’s game
The Braves began selling standing-room-only tickets Wednesday for their first playoff game at SunTrust Park.
The decision came with seats almost sold out for Sunday night’s National League Division Series game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The standing-room tickets are priced at $60 apiece and are available on the Braves' website and at the SunTrust Park ticket windows.

As of Wednesday morning, the Braves showed very few seats available on Ticketmaster’s website for Sunday’s game. More seats remained for Monday’s potential game.
On the secondary market, tickets are available for both games through various resale sites at a wide range of prices and seat locations, as usual.
One such site, StubHub, said Tuesday it had 5,469 tickets to Sunday’s game listed for resale at an average price of $104.
The Braves last were in the playoffs in 2013, when they lost to the Dodgers in four games in the Division Series.
