The stadium serves as the home field for the Brewers’ spring training games and also hosts Milwaukee’s minor league team in the Arizona Complex League during the summer. For baseball games, American Family Fields of Phoenix has a capacity of 10,000 fans.

Where are the Best Places to Sit at American Family Fields of Phoenix

Typically, sections 100-106 are the ideal sections to sit at American Family Fields of Phoenix. These are the sections directly behind home plate between the two dugouts, putting fans as close to the action as possible. Just keep in mind there are over 20 rows in these sections, so there will be a difference between rows close to the field and the back rows. Meanwhile, sections 107-112 are located directly behind the two dugouts and also offer a good vantage point. Keep in mind that seats behind home plate and on the third-base side of the stadium will be the first areas to receive shade during the afternoon, making seats on the first-base side more likely to be drenched in sunlight.
