A scalper arrested for selling fake World Series tickets outside Yankee Stadium tried to win his freedom by bribing an officer with seats.

The 50-year-old man was arrested outside the stadium before the start of Game 2 for allegedly selling a fake ticket.

Police say he had three other tickets on him at the time of his arrest.

They also say after the man was booked at a nearby precinct he offered police tickets to another sporting event if they let him go.

He has been charged with attempted bribery and possession of a forged instrument.
