Shaded and covered seats at TD Ballpark are primarily located on the upper level, offering reliable protection from the sun. The best shaded seats are found in rows 12 and higher in sections 200–205 (first base side) and 209–212 (third base side), as these areas are covered by the overhang, providing consistent shade. During early afternoon games, the lower rows of these upper-level sections may remain exposed to the sun initially but will be shaded by the later innings.
As the sun moves from behind home plate toward the third base side, the first base side remains sunnier for most of the game, while the third base side offers increasing shade as the game progresses. Keep this in mind when choosing lower-level seats, as those on the third base side are more likely to receive shade.
Additionally, higher rows, such as row 16, often experience refreshing breezes, making them a comfortable option on warm days. For the best combination of shade, cover, and comfort, aim for rows 11 and above on the upper level on either side of the field.
Seat Ratings Mentioning Shade/Cover

Section 202, Row 13 (Baseball)
This section would be considered very close in a normal MLB park, but for this spring training venue, it is one of the further sections from the field. However, a huge benefit of being at the back of the section is the is it's in the shade most of the game. We were much more comfortable than some other fans stuck in the sun....More
