I recommend section 114 row 19-21, mostly in the shade and down the third base line. Other great seating and cheaper is the home run porch, rockers and just grab a blanket and sit in the left and right field berms. Check their website for game night promotions and Friday night game fireworks. As far as travel from Austin to Dell Diamond, something tells me it would be cheaper to rent a car for one day rather than pay fare back and forth.

We stayed at the Hampton Inn Austin-Round Rock. The location was convenient to the stadium, just a few miles. I do not recall a hotel within walking distance. There are office buildings and shopping area located next to the stadium.

I cannot recall exactly; however I want to say near 10.00 In the past we typically get tickets given to us by friends who have season tickets, or box seats; with parking included. there is alot of discounts available through various businesses,online, giveaways of tickets with parking included. just depends on how you get your tickets. i see alot of people grabbing a meal at one of the local establishments (e.g, the salt lick, or Hat Creek Hamburgers), and then walk over; however am unsure if this is encouraged, due to limited parking for patrons. i have also heard some people mention about parking where the RVs are across from the lot; however do not know exactly how that works. there is old settlers park right there as well. not sure what they allow? hope this gives you some ideas.

I was not aware that you could bring your own lawn chair. Our understanding is that we could not. we brought a fold up type picnic mat, and additional towels, bags to put items in for our dogs. dog bowls (if it is a bring your dog night), etc.. whatever keeps you comfortable. we sat on the side with the scoreboard; where they have videos/advertisements posted as to avoid the heat of the evening sun-I would guess the east side. we always bring additional wipes/hand sanitizer, sunscreen (just in case), and bug guard.

plan to stay till near 10pm at night, if not later. depends on the game.

If you have a drivers license, it must be cheaper to rent a car for one day and drive yourself back and forth. Of course, a drive share ride will save you $10 parking fee.

Yes. You can bring in never opened water bottles. atleast we did for our dogs for bring your dog night...and including their water bowls. not sure about other nights. i'm assuming you can bring in never opened water bottles especially for young children. they went through our purses/backpacks, and wanded us. everything worked out. the food and drink at this location really is good, and not too expensive.

Nope. The Metro (light rail) would get you to Leander (NW of Round Rock) & some points south, but no public transportation exists in Round Rock. Taxi are the only transportation in Round Rock & they are too expensive to use for anything other than medical appointments.

The public transportation in Austin is minimal compared to most cities it's size. But to get from downtown Austin to Round Rock via public transportation for an Express game is wishful thinking. A cab would be very expensive. Better off renting a car. Parking at the Express game is like $5. Lots of parking spaces, and even the farthest spots are pretty close to the stadium.
