LAN 46,492 54,375 +17.0%
CHN 39,507 42,302 +7.1%
NYA 38,851 48,839 +25.7%
BOS 36,021 37,658 +4.5%
WAS 31,173 43,869 +40.7%
HOU 29,675 43,234 +45.7%
ARI 26,350 48,722 +84.9%
CLE 25,286 37,698 +49.1%
In real life, the Major League Executive Council determines the price of post-season tickets. Furthermore, the players get 50% of the gate receipts from each Wild Card game, 60% of the gate receipts from the first three games of the Division Series, and 60% of the gate receipts from the first four games of the League Championship and World Series.(according to the 2021 Major League Rules).

Oh I totally agree. I guess what I was getting at would there would have to be an unfathomable price increase because a typical post season ticket price hike shouldn't lead to a drop in attendance. Something is absolutely not right with the OP's situation.
