Clear announced a new partnership today with Major League Baseball and Tickets.com that will let fans opt for biometric ticketing at certain MLB ballparks. Those who link their Clear accounts to their MLB.com accounts will be able to use their fingerprint instead of a paper or mobile ticket at participating ballparks.

"Developing a partnership that will unify emerging identity technology and ticketing is reflective of our commitments to always improving ballpark accessibility and maintaining critical security standards."

Clear already works with nine MLB clubs, allowing fans to use their fingerprints to get through security lines more quickly. The company says it will also soon be introducing biometric-powered concession purchases in Washington and is working on incorporating facial recognition into its Clear Lanes.
