Cubs open postseason ticket lottery

The Chicago Cubs have opened online registration for fans seeking to buy tickets for potential postseason games at Wrigley Field.

Beginning Tuesday at noon, fans can register for a random drawing to win a chance to purchase single game tickets for a potential Wild Card Game and National League Division Series.

For the first time, fans will be required to submit a one-time refundable deposit of $50 to "verify authenticity of each entry and the genuine interest to attend postseason games," the Cubs said. The $50 deposit may be applied to the ticket purchase, if applicable, or will be refunded at the end of the postseason.
