How it works

Three inputs. A clearer seating decision.

01

Choose the game

Enter the game date, scheduled first pitch, and expected length.

02

Watch the shade move

Follow the sun and projected stadium shadow throughout the selected game.

03

Compare sections

Check first-pitch coverage, game average, peak shade, and likely majority-shade time.

Why game time matters

The same section can feel different two hours later.

Shade depends on the sun’s direction, the height of the sun, the stadium bowl, the deck above, and how far back the row is. A generic covered-section list cannot show when the shade actually reaches your area.

ShadeSeats calculates section coverage throughout the game so you can compare the moment you arrive with the later innings.
