Boston is also using a tiered pricing system, so tickets for marquee games will be more expensive than others, including Opening Day and games against the New York Yankees.

The Red Sox will continue to offer reduced pricing for students, clergy, veterans, and active duty members of the military. They will also offer tickets for high school and college students for $9.
