Tickets.com spokeswoman Melissa Zukerman acknowledged the problems, but said that some fans were able to get through and buy tickets. She likened the Web site problems to fans trying to buy tickets over the phone to a popular concert and getting a busy signal.
"(Giants) fans were very anxious to get tickets," Zukerman said. "The bottom line is that the tickets were sold out."
