Section 135 at Rate Field

(2026 Review) - Closest Seats to the Field: Lower Box sections make up the closest non-premium seating near the field at Rate Field.    Prime Infield Options: Sections near home plate and the dugouts offer some of the best non-club views in the stadium.    Different Names, Same Experience: Diamond Box, Platinum Box, and Gold Box all fall within this area and offer similar seating experiences.    Shaded Upper Rows: Rows near the back of these sections may receive cover from the Club Level above.    Better Angles Near the Infield: Seats closer to home plate provide the best sightlines, while seats far down the lines face more toward the outfield.    Who Should Sit Here  Lower Box seats are ideal for fans who want to sit close to the field for a White Sox game without paying Scout Seat prices. These sections are especially appealing for fans looking for great views of the infield action, easy concourse access, and a traditional ballpark seating experience near the action.  Lower Box Seats Location & Details  Lower Box seating includes sections 111-153 on the White Sox seating chart.  Sections near home plate carry a variety of names — including Diamond Box, Platinum Box, and Gold Box — but the overall seating experience is very similar across these areas.  White Sox Dugout: Sections 137-142    Visitor Dugout: Sections 122-127    Behind Home Plate: Sections 130-134, located directly behind the premium Scout Seats (which occupy the first 12-15 rows)    Most Lower Box sections feature 35-38 rows, and many rows have fewer than ten seats, which can make these sections feel slightly less crowded than others in the ballpark.  Rows near the top of the section may also receive overhead coverage from the Club Level above, offering some protection from sun or rain.  Lower Box Seats Views  Views from the Lower Box seats vary depending on how close you are to the infield.  Sections near home plate provide excellent sightlines of the pitcher-batter matchup and are among the best non-premium views in the stadium.  Seats further down the lines are angled more toward the outfield, which can make it slightly less comfortable to follow the action at home plate. Fans sitting in these areas may find the view more comfortable in higher rows, where the viewing angle improves and access to the concourse is easier.  Protective netting runs down both baselines and reduces foul ball opportunities in sections 116-118 and 146-148, which were previously some of the better spots for catching foul balls.  Things to Know  Lower Box seats include standard stadium seating amenities with close proximity to the main lower-level concourse.  Fans sitting on the first base/right field side will typically find shade earlier during afternoon games. Meanwhile, fans along the third base/left field side will enjoy better views of the large video board located in right field.  Recommended Rows  For the best overall experience in the Lower Box sections, consider sitting in rows 15-20. These rows offer a great balance of proximity to the field while providing a slightly elevated perspective that makes it easier to follow the entire game.  Fans in this range are still close enough to feel the energy of the action, but high enough to enjoy more comfortable sightlines toward home plate, especially in sections located down the lines. These rows also place you closer to the concourse for easier access to concessions and restrooms during the game.
