MLB tickets and experiences are now available to redeem using only your SPG Starpoints! If you are a baseball fan, you can redeem for things like having your child run out on the field, you can deliver the line-up card, or even announced “Play Ball!”

 

SPG Starpoints are an incredibly valuable currency for many reasons but one of my continually favorite uses for them is the ability to use them for SPG Moments – packages that feature experiences, hotels, ticketed events, and more. There are many such opportunities that can be once in a lifetime or give incredible value for the points used. If you are a baseball fan, now is the time when you can put those SPG Starpoints to use for tickets to see your favorite team play – and even have some unique experiences with them as well.

MLB Tickets & Great Packages Now Bookable with SPG Starpoints

MLB packages

Here is the list of the auctions or packages currently available. Many of the straight up ticket packages are available to buy right away with points while some of the MLB tickets/packages are auctions. Unless otherwise noted, each package is for 2 tickets.

Chicago Cub Packages & Experiences

Thanks to a partnership between SPG and the World Champion Chicago Cubs, there are certain experiences or seats that you can redeem your points for on their games that could be perfect for the fan in your life.

Are These MLB Packages Worth It?

In many cases, the seats are pretty good and would likely cost more than $100 per ticket at face value, more on the resale market. Certainly check the seating section to be sure. But, I can tell you that the Chicago Cub packages would certainly be good deals for the Cubs fan (or the fan of the team they are playing) since those seats would go for more and the experiences – having your child run out on the field, delivering the line-up card, announcing “Play Ball” – are things that you wouldn’t be able to pay for with money anyway.

But, do the math yourself and figure out if this is how you want to use your Starpoints. Sure, 30,000 Starpoints could give you a night at a very nice SPG property but maybe it would mean more to you to have your 7-13 year old child be able to run out the field with the players, get a photo out there, and then you could enjoy the game with him/her from the field box seats. That is one the greatest things about SPG Starpoints – they can give you a lot beyond travel!

Getting SPG Starpoints

Do not forget, there is a limited-time offer right now on both the personal and the business SPG credit cards. Each of them will give you 35,000 Starpoints after meeting the required spending. The tickets and packages above are just for the first half of the season so you have plenty of time to collect points before they post the packages for the second half of the season.
