ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The St. Louis Cardinals are putting single-game tickets on sale Friday, some at deep discounts reflecting the economic downturn.
The Cardinals have exceeded 3 million in attendance 10 of the last 11 seasons, including all three years at new Busch Stadium. But for the first time, the team does not expect to sell that many tickets by opening day.
The team's "kids fan-friendly values" include children's prices as low as $7 for every home game, families getting a free hot dog and soda with reserved seats for most Sundays, and free ice cream in the Ford Plaza before all Sunday games.
