    Have you caught Guardians fever?

    Have a grand or so burning a hole in your pocket?

    There's still time to catch a flight to New York and buy a ticket to take in Game 1 of ALCS but it will cost you a pretty penny or two or three.

    The direct flight alone out of Cleveland with a Monday morning departure and a Tuesday return will cost anywhere from $618 to $927.

    There are flights out of Akron-Canton Airport that are cheaper at $781 but they involve layovers and will take you as many as eight hours — compared to the hour and a half direct flight from Cleveland Hopkins Airport.

    Catching an Uber from the airport to Yankee Stadium could run anywhere from $80 to $120.

    And then there's the matter of buying a ticket to get into the sold-out ballpark.

    The cheapest seat offered for resale will run $141 before extra fees to as much as $4,131 for a seat in a fancy suite in the Bronx.

    A hot dog at Yankee Stadium is about the most affordable thing at $3 and a basic beer is $6.

    The good news is there's no chance of spending any money on Yankees gear so there's that.

    A one-night stay in a hotel near the ballpark after the hopeful Guardians win will run anywhere from $115 before taxes and fees to as much as $600.

    A bagel the next morning with a shmear will run anywhere from $7 to $24 and a slice of New York-style pizza will make you fork out another $3 to $12 for a quick bite before catching that pricey Uber back to JFK.

    Oh yeah... and don't forget it's going to cost you another $23 to get your car out of the parking lot at the airport.
