In 2022, Capital One partnered with MLB to offer baseball tickets through its Capital One Entertainment portal. In AwardWallet testing, most tickets deliver a poor redemption rate of just 0.8¢ per mile — with one big exception. Capital One offers a limited number of infield MLB tickets for just 5,000 miles each, and a new batch of these tickets was just released for games throughout March, April, and May 2026.
If you're a baseball fan — or just a fan of a great deal — you'll want to act quickly to scoop up these tickets before they're gone. Here's how to do it.

How to Get Cheap MLB Tickets Through Capital One Entertainment
Capital One's Entertainment Portal offers cardholder-exclusive tickets as part of partnerships it has with MLB and NCAA basketball. As you might expect from “cardholder exclusives,” you will need to be a Capital One cardholder to snag these deals.
As part of its partnership with MLB, Capital One seems to have secured a block of four infield seats for nearly every MLB home game. While the exact location varies by team, these tickets are generally located just a few rows behind one of the dugouts. Capital One offers these tickets to cardholders for just 5,000 Capital One miles each.

How Much Are 5,000 Capital One Miles Worth?
The value you can get from Capital One miles depends on how you redeem them. At a bare minimum, you should get 1¢ per point from Capital One mileage redemptions — such as redemptions for travel purchases. At this baseline rate, 5,000 Capital One miles would be worth $50.
However, you can get a lot more value through Capital One's airline and hotel transfer partners. In recent redemptions, AwardWallet users have redeemed Capital One miles for an average of 2.04¢ per mile.
That's a bit inflated by the high-value business-class redemptions you can get through transfer partners. If you only consider economy bookings, the average is around 1.5¢ per mile in value. At that rate, 5,000 Capital One miles are worth around $75.
Not a Capital One Cardholder?
If you don't already have a Capital One credit card, you probably won't be able to sign up in time for this ticket drop. However, you can get a Capital One card to be ready the next time Capital One releases more 5,000-mile MLB tickets.
For a $0-annual-fee card, you can't beat the Capital One VentureOne Rewards Credit Card. The card is currently offering a 20,000 bonus miles-mile bonus once you spend $500 on purchases within 3 months from account opening. That bonus alone would get you four MLB tickets at 5,000 miles each!
- 20,000 Miles once you spend $500 on purchases within 3 months from account opening
- 1.25 Miles on every purchase
- 0% intro APR on purchases for 15 months; 18.49% - 28.49% variable APR after that
- No foreign transaction fees
- $0 annual fee
- 5 Miles per dollar on hotels, vacation rentals, and rental cars booked through Capital One Travel
- 5 Miles per dollar on purchases through Capital One Entertainment
- 1.25 Miles per dollar on every purchase, every day.
If you're looking for one card to rule them all, the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card is a compelling option. For a $395 annual fee, you'll get a $300 annual travel credit, TSA PreCheck or Global Entry application credit (every four years), 10,000-mile anniversary bonus (worth a minimum of $100), access to participating Priority Pass™ lounges, Capital One Lounge and Capital One Landing access, no foreign transaction fees, Hertz President's Circle status, and more.
Plus, eligible new cardholders can earn a bonus of 75,000 bonus miles when you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.
- 10X miles per $1 on hotels and rental cars booked via Capital One Travel
- 5X miles per $1 on purchases through Capital One Entertainment
- 5X miles per $1 on flights when booking via Capital One Travel
- 5X miles per $1 on vacation rentals booked via Capital One Travel
- 2X miles per $1 on all other eligible purchases
Bottom Line
The cardholder-exclusive tickets available through Capital One Entertainment can be a great way to score a deal. MLB tickets for 5,000 miles would be a solid option even if the seats were in the upper deck. But the ability to snag infield MLB tickets throughout March, April, and May 2026 for just 5,000 Capital One miles is an even better deal, and one that likely won't last long.
