Prices for this year's Yankees-Dodgers World Series are among the most expensive and fastest-selling the secondary market has ever seen.

The superstars will be out on both coasts beginning Friday, and you will have to pay a hefty price to see the action. This year's World Series will feature the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers – it will be a record 12th time the two historic franchises will meet in the Fall Classic. Between both rosters, there are 64 All-Star nods, making it one of the most star-studded sporting events ever.

And people are lined up to get to the ballparks. StubHub says sales on the site for this year's World Series have quadrupled the Astros-Phillies World Series from 2022, and surpassed sales from last year's Fall Classic between the Rangers and Diamondbacks. As of 10 a.m. Tuesday, the average price for a ticket sold on StubHub is $1,667, the highest recorded by the site since 2017 – the get-in price for Game 1 on Friday for one single ticket is $1,170.

TicketIQ says only the Cubs' World Series season in 2016 was more expensive since they began tracking pricing data – this year's average price on their site is $3,887, while that Fall Classic averaged $4,557 per ticket. The site also says the average price for the contests at Yankee Stadium are averaging $4,875 a pop, the second-most behind only the $6,641 at Wrigley Field from that magical 2016 season.

First pitch is at 8:08 p.m. Friday. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
