Shade overview

Section 233 is a Main Level section on the third-base/left-field side. At a midsummer 1:05 PM first pitch it's a sun/shade split — front rows catch the high sun while back rows sit in shade — and it stays that way for most of the game. The deck above covers the back rows, so the rear of the section is the safe bet whatever the start time. Night games: shaded from first pitch.
