The Amarillo Sod Poodles minor league baseball team has introduced a new $10 ticket program called 'Soddies Value Seats' in an effort to make games more accessible for local families. The discounted tickets, which include applicable fees for a total of under $15 per seat, will be available in select sections of Hodgetown stadium for certain home games throughout the 2026 season.

Why it matters

With the rising cost of living in Amarillo, the Sod Poodles are responding to community concerns about affordability by offering more budget-friendly options for attending games. This initiative aims to ensure that the classic American pastime of minor league baseball remains within reach for families in the area.

The details

The Soddies Value Seats will be located in Section 117, providing fans with actual seats rather than just standing room or lawn seating. There will be a limited quantity of these $10 tickets available for select home games, so fans are encouraged to secure their tickets early before they sell out.
