Define "best"
The "best" for actually viewing and enjoy baseball are behind home plate, about mid-way up.
The "best" for impressing people are as close to the field as possible, and as close to home plate as possible.

I actually don't like the closest seats -- I'm there to watch the game. Up close is cool, but it's hard to watch the game effectively.

I ended up buying 2nd level seating on the 1st base side, 1st row. I think that will be sufficient.

Thanks for the input!

This is a picture from the 2nd row of that section, is it possible our first row will be seen through that stupid metal gate? LOL!

Decades ago, when I was stationed on the east side of San Francisco Bay, we would go see the Oakland A's play. $2 for bleacher seats, with military ID, and $2 beers.

Had the opportunity to go see them play, once, where we sat on the 3rd base line, but way up in the 3rd tier. Definitely a different point of view!

Not sure if that helps, but it's my 2-cents worth. ;)

You won't find any in a MLB ballpark. Good baseball, and a good time enjoy some minor league ball.
