Expert Recommendations for Your Minor League Baseball Experience
As a AAA baseball venue, Principal Park offers excellent sightlines throughout the stadium. Based on current inventory and pricing, here's my breakdown of the best options for different budgets and preferences:
🏆 Best Value Tickets (Under $20)
- Sections 10/14 (Rows 2-4 @ $16-17): Solid baseline views with good foul ball opportunities. Section 14 Row 2 is particularly strong value.
- Section 6 (Rows 1-2 @ $17-19): Closer to home plate with better viewing angles than similarly priced baseline seats.
- General Admission Bleachers ($24): Budget-friendly option with first-come seating and classic ballpark atmosphere.
🎯 Sweet Spot (Best Balance of Price & View)
- Sections B/V/W (Rows 1-2 @ $20-21): Premium infield locations at mid-range prices. Section V Row 1 offers exceptional value.
- Section C (Rows 1-2 @ $21-23): Behind home plate experience without premium pricing. Row 1 here is a steal at $23.
- Section U (Rows 2-3 @ $21-22): Great angled views of the plate with good foul ball potential.
💎 Higher Tier Options (Better Views, Higher Cost)
- Sections 4-7/15-16 (Rows 1-2 @ $34-37): Prime lower bowl seats near dugouts/bases. Section 15 Row 1 is worth the premium.
- Sections 11-13 (Rows 2/16 @ $35-37): Excellent baseline perspectives with good elevation in higher rows.
- Club Sections A/Y/Z (Rows 1-3 @ $36-37): Enhanced amenities and premium sightlines behind home plate.
✨ Premium/Luxury Experiences

- Section N (Row 2 @ $97): Ultimate behind-home-plate VIP experience.
- Section O (Row 6 @ $109): Highest-end dugout-adjacent premium seating.
🔍 View Comparison
- Lower Rows (1-3): Closer to field action but may have some obstruction from netting (Sections C-N)
- Mid Rows (4-9): Optimal elevation for tracking full field of play
- Upper Rows (10+): Better overview of defensive positioning but farther from players
- Infield vs Baseline: Infield seats (C,U,V,W) better for viewing pitching/batting, baseline better for foul balls
💡 Pro Tips
- For groups: Section 10 Row 4 has 10 tickets available at just $16 each
- Best photo ops: Sections V/X Row 1 provide perfect framing of downtown skyline
- Shade seekers: First base side (Sections 10-16) gets afternoon shade earlier
- Autograph hunters: Sections 4-7 near dugouts offer best access
🎟️ Final Recommendation
For most fans, I recommend Section V Row 1 ($21) as the perfect balance of price and premium view. Budget-conscious buyers should jump on Section 14 Row 2 ($16), while those wanting luxury should consider Section OO Row 2 ($80) for the full club experience.
