Opportunity for Reds postseason tickets now available

CINCINNATI - We're not trying to jinx it, but the Reds are offering an opportunity to register for postseason tickets already.

With the team's magic number down to 19, and their lead over the NL Central's second place St. Louis Cardinals at 8.5 games, things are looking good for the Redlegs, but the season is far from over and they aren't guaranteed a playoff spot yet.

So if you're feeling good about this team's chances like we are, you can register for the opportunity to buy Reds postseason tickets of all kinds when their potential games fall at Great American Ball Park.

The Reds have opened the opportunity to register to get a chance to buy tickets to the NLDS, the NLCS and the World Series.

The dates and times of the exact games have not yet been determined, but you can register for the chance to buy tickets to all of the games at https://secure.mlb.com/cin/ticketing/postseason_opportunity_2012.jsp.

Registration ends for the NLDS on Wednesday, Sept. 12, at 12 p.m. For the NLCS, registration ends on Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2012 at 12 p.m. and World Series registration will remain open until Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2012 at 12 p.m.

Tickets for the NLDS start at $30 for standing room and go up to $265 for Diamond Club, for the NLCS start at $40 and go up to $310, and for the World Series start at $65 and go up to $531.25.
