Once again, the Colorado Rockies are off to a rocky start when it comes to their record sitting at 1-5 entering their Home Opener, but the good news is the cost to attend a game lines up with how they have performed in recent ye ars.According to a report released this week by Bookies.com, if you're looking to save money, on average, a family of four will spend $208 on four of the cheapest available tickets, a parking spot, two beers, two sodas and four hot dogs across all MLB stadiums. A trip to Coors Field is the 2nd cheapest on the list, as you can expect to pay about $136 for the same amount of stuff. Meaning people watching the Rockies play at home will pay about 35% less than the league average.
