Sitting in the outfield for a Major League Baseball game is pretty amazing. Not only are the seats cheaper than the infield seats but they give fans the best chance at catching home run balls hit by their favorite players. And if you're a dad that brings young sons to the ballpark, all it takes is catching a home run ball in the outfield for them to be hooked on Major League Baseball for life. After reading up on Zack Hample and his travels to all of the Major League Ballparks, we couldn't help but notice that he knew exactly where to be in the outfield when certain players were up to bat. Here are the best sections to sit in if you want to catch a home run ball at every Major League ballpark.
