For example, section A and B are directly behind home plate and rows in each section are under cover. Sections are the most heavily covered sections at Yankee Stadium. Located in right field, more than half of the rows in these sections are covered. While this will keep you dry, keep in mind that the farther back you sit, the more obstructed your view by the overhang.
Also keep in mind that these sections are susceptible to the sun when it starts setting over the third base roof. The only s sections without any cover are sections , , and These sections are in home run territory and do not have a roof or overhang protecting them. The Main Level at Yankee Stadium refers to sections labeled in the s except those in the outfield. Each of these sections has at least a little cover thanks to the Terrace Level overhang.
Between sections - and - , roughly the last ten rows are under cover, starting with row As for the s sections in the outfield? Those are known as the Bleachers - and as most bleachers are - these are completely exposed to the sun and rain. The next level up at Yankee Stadium is the Terrace Level. These are sections labeled in the s. These sections provide cover to the level, but are not covered themselves.
They're one of the best values for a Yankees game, but on a rainy day you don't want to be sitting here. At the top of Yankee Stadium are the Grandstand sections. Not only are these among the cheapest tickets for Yankees games, they're also among the best protected seats. Roughly speaking, the last ten rows of every Grandstand section is covered by the roof. Pick a seat in row 5 or higher and you'll stay happily dry during inclement weather. Just keep in mind that the trade-off in the highest rows is that the lattice of the roof may be distracting to your view.
While covered seats are great for keeping you dry on a rainy day, some of them won't do you much good if what you're really after is relief from the sun.
If this is you, here are the general rules for finding shaded seats at a Yankees game:. Have Tickets? Select an Event Field Level Outfield seats at Yankee Stadium are hit and miss. Because the seats include outfield seating and seats down each baseline, there are a variety of seating options. Some fans have complained about the foul poles in Sections and , while others complain about being obstructed by handicapped seating.
To sit near the Yankees bullpen, sit in seat 1 on the right-side of Section Alternatively, sitting in a high-number seat in Section will have you next to the Visitor's bullpen.
Sit as close to home plate as you can for your best chance at shade. Avoid Sections for afternoon games if you are sensitive to the sun.
Grandstand Infield seating is an inexpensive way to catch a Yankees game. In fact, the grandstand seats behind home plate Sections are one of only two seating areas where you can get a home plate view without paying for club seats.
These are highly recommended for fans who want a view of the entire field without spending Suite-level prices. For shade, opt for seats on the third base side e.
The roof covers the upper two-thirds of these sections and the seats listed above will be shaded first. Fans have complained about the plexiglass obstructing views in Rows 1 and 2. The safety glass is there so fans walking down the stairs don't tumble over the railing. If you think this would be a distraction, you might want to avoid the first two rows. Each grandstand section has fourteen rows of seating, and there is a fairly significant difference between rows 1 and Sitting in Row 1 will give you the quickest access to the concourse and the best views from just above the Terrace Level.
Meanwhile, sitting in the last row requires you to walk more than a dozen stairs to get to your seats. And if you're not seated on the aisle, you might be in the middle of a row containing as many as 28 seats. On the flip side, the higher the row number, the higher the likelihood you will be in the shade.
During the hot summer months, this could come as a blessing. For a truly good deal, try to aim for Rows 5 or 6. There are fewer than 20 seats in these rows, they are only a few steps from the concourse, and you have a fairly good chance of being in the shade as long as your seats are in foul territory outfield seating, especially in RF, is in the sun.
As much as any ballpark in the big leagues, the second deck hangs over the lower level. In turn, the views from the front of these sections is absolutely outstanding - making you feel like you're seated just above the field.
The suite level hangs over the last five rows in these sections, so the view from the back rows isn't as generous. However, what those rows lack in sitelines, they make up for it in comfort.
The upper rows as covered, usually shaded and closer to the concourse and its concessions. Restrooms are scarce on the main level, so target Section A or B to be near a men's and women's restroom and plenty of food options. Outfield seating on the Main Level includes seating down both baselines and wrapping into home run territory. Yankee Stadium is among the most homer-friendly parks out to right field.
As such, sections , and get littered with home run balls. If you do choose to sit there, make sure to bring the shades and a hat during a day game -- the sun will be beating down on you all day. For a slightly more comfortable afternoon, choose seating in Sections or , which are less likely to be in the sun and are close to men's, women's and family restrooms.
If sitting in , , or , be prepared to turn your body to watch the action on the infield -- the angle towards home plate is quite poor. Each section has up to 23 rows, and rows 15 and above will give you a pretty good chance of being protected from the sun except in right field.
The Terrace Level is located on the third deck at Yankee Stadium. These seats have a great view of the scoreboard in center field, but are much higher up than level seating. Because of the intimacy of these sections fewer than ten rows per section , these are a great option for quickly getting in and out of your seats.
However, with up to 25 seats in a row, you'll want to get aisle seats to avoid having to step over a dozen strangers to get in and out. From a weather standpoint, these seats are not very well covered and don't offer much sun protection. Sections will be your best chance to be in the shade first.
One final issue with these seats is the Standing Room Only crowd located behind them. They make for more crowded lines and concourses and may occasionally try to poach your seat while you're away. Sections were previously designated Jim Beam Suites. Some tickets in these sections still have the Suite designation. These tickets have access to the exclusive club with upscale amenities and complimentary snacks and soft drinks.

Built at a cost of more than two billion dollars, the new Yankee Stadium is an impressive combination of original architecture and modern conveniences. And while some of the favorite seats from the old ballpark - like the overhanging third deck - did not make it to the new stadium in exact form, new Yankee Stadium boasts some of the best seats in all of baseball.
If you're headed to a Yankees game and getting the best view is most important to you, look no further than seats on the second level - especially near the infield. These aren't just the best seats in Yankee Stadium - these are perhaps the best seats in any major league ballpark. What makes the level at Yankee Stadium so spectacular is a perfect combination of elevation and distance to the field.
These seats hang over the lower seating bowl - a feature that has become common in retro-style ballparks. This creates shade and cover for the seats below, and it allows the second seating deck to be closer to the field. Unlike most stadiums; however, there are fewer than 30 rows of seats in the main seating bowl at Yankee Stadium. Most stadiums with an overhanging deck have 40 or more rows in the lower bowl. By being ten rows closer to the field and lower to the ground, sections like feel as if they are literally on top of the field.
If you're sitting in one of the lower rows of these sections, you may not even see the field level seats below you - furthering the illusion that you're as close to the field as you can get.

As for other locations within Yankee Stadium that offer a great view, you can't go wrong with anything on the lower level behind home plate. The only complaints about these seats is that they might be too low to the ground, the net gets in the way and, oh yeah, they tend to cost a pretty penny.
You can avoid two of these issues by purchasing tickets a little farther from home plate where the netting is not in your way the net runs from section to and ticket prices are a little more agreeable. If a home plate view is important and you want to stay within a budget, you'll likely be priced out of all seats on the first two seating decks.
