New York Yankees Announce StubHub Partnership

Tensions are still high over the 'Ticketmaster saga' that was the 2022 Taylor Swift Eras tour fiasco, and concerns continue to surface from artists and venues alike not only over the availability of tickets, but cost and general fees associated with purchasing tickets as well.

In fact, just today, Taylor Swift fans had their first court appearance against Ticketmaster over monopoly claims.

In the meantime though, the number 1 selling Major League Baseball team announced a major partnership in order to 'improve the ticketing experience' for their fans.
