BAEST MODE!!!

Getting There: No matter how you slice it, Boston is an awful place to park. Any one game could cost you up to $40 to park in any independently owned lot or garage. If a 25 minute minute walk doesn't bother you, there's occasionally reasonably priced parking ($7 is the most I've ever paid,) in Central Square in Cambridge, but again, it's not exactly close.

The T (subway) is perhaps the quickest and cheapest way to get to Fenway. Any Green Line Train, aside from E will take you directly to Kenmore Square, where Fenway is no more than a 3 minute walk. Be warned; since this is the most popular route, it tends to fill up and crowed very quickly.


Someone in Boston might tell me I'm an idiot, but if you don't mind walking a mile or so, there should be parking on Beacon. The meters run until 8 PM (I've gotten caught thinking it was six) but I've parked in that area during Sox home games and found some parking. There's some pretty good restaurants in that area as well if you want to avoid ballpark food. You might also get lucky around Comm and Harvard, but that's about a mile and a half away.

BAEST MODE!!!
This is a long shot but has anyone dropped off or picked up anyone from Yankee Stadium? My grandparents said something kind of sad last week about never getting to see the new Stadium and I'm trying to make it work. My grandma walks with a cane, but because she can still walk refuses to use a wheelchair. I talked to someone with Yankee guest services and they gave me the impression dropping off is pretty easy if you get there early but picking anyone up is going to be more difficult. Anyone have experience with this? I'm guessing most people take the train or subway but it's worth a shot.
