Top Baseball Spots in Illinois

If you can, arrive around 5 PM for a day game. You'll beat the pre-game crowd and can enjoy watching the players warm up on the field

Try to get a seat in the bleachers if you can. They're more fun and you might catch a home run ball! Just don’t forget your sunscreen!

I recommend using public transport to get there, like the 'L’ train. Parking is a nightmare and super expensive, so skip the stress and ride instead.

I suggest grabbing a hot dog from one of the vendors outside before heading in. They’re reasonably priced and super tasty! Plus, you'll save some cash compared to inside food prices.

I suggest looking for game day promotions online. I scored discounted tickets through a social media promo which made the experience way more budget-friendly.

Make sure to walk around the park before the game starts. There are cool photo ops and some great views of the city that are worth capturing, especially around sunset.

Bring a clear bag for your snacks and drinks to speed through security. It saved me a ton of time at the entrance, and the staff were super chill about it.

If you're driving, consider using public transport instead to avoid parking hassles. The Red Line is super convenient and drops you right at the stadium.
