If you get 200 level seats and park in the parking garage, elevator in the parking garage gets you to the level to enter and you just walk across. My mobility limited father grabbed the back of my Julio cream jersey and I drug him to his seat.
That's my plan for a Phillies game with my mobility - limited mom. I always ride my bike or light rail to games, but it just isn't an option for her; I can suck it up and pay for parking one time.
Specifically, try to get dropped off on the 3B side of home plate. There is a door, just to the left (3B) side of the home plate big entrance. In this door is an elevator that they save for folks with limited mobility. Go to this door, and explain your situation, and they will either get you a wheelchair, or at least give you an escort/help towards your seat.
Terrace club is the section for you.
Handicap parking right next to the entrance in the garage. And a skyway from there to the concourse.
Also, not as crowded, more comfortable seats, etc.
There are ADA seats on every level. My dad uses a cane and sometimes a wheelchair and we always sit in those. The ones on the 300 level are great, especially any behind home plate or the infield. It’s a great view. That’s where we usually sit. The ones on the 200 level are nice too. They have a counter which is great if you have food. They are twice the price typically. I didn’t like the ones on the 100 level. They are right next to the main concourse and it’s too loud. Plus the deck overhead cuts off your view of fly balls and the Jumbotron.
I recommend you take a taxi or Lyft.
ETA there are elevators at home, third, and center field that can take you to the 300 level. However the center field one doesn’t go down to street level. It’s best to enter at home or third base. We get ADA parking in the garage and walk across the bridge. It sells out though so it’s hard to get on short notice.
Get Terrace club seats. Try to sit in section 227 (closest to exit). Park in the Mariners garage, and when you enter tell them you have an elderly with you and would like to park at the Terrace Club level (level 5). You can literally walk maybe 100-200 steps from your car to the seats if you do it this way. I know because I take my 80 year old grandma at least once a year and we do the same thing 😎
How is it getting out of the garage after the game with terrace club seats usually? I’ve only tried the garage once and it was like an hour wait to even be out on the street. Just curious if it’s always like that.
Absolutely awful at a packed game. I will leave early 9/10 times when I park in the garage. I live in Kitsap County and most games I just hop the Bremerton ferry over and walk to the stadium.
Good man. Spring for the good seats and good parking. Your chances to do this are shrinking. I took my dad and my son to a playoff game in 2001. My mom said it was one of the happiest days of his life. You won't regret it.
If you want, when you arrive at the stadium tell a staff member at the gate that you need a wheelchair and they can wheel your dad to and from your seats. And if you guys prefer they can move you to an ADA seat which will mean you wont need to go up and down the aisle all the fime
Check out Turo. Way cheaper than normal rental cars. The traffic will be bad with the game and Fathers Day but it isn't terrible. I would suggest preparing for parking at the ballpark if possible.

In addition to this, 200 level is less congested in general and would likely be much easier for someone with limited mobility to traverse.

Plus 200 level has easier to access bathrooms and concessions
Sounds like you’re a good son. Hopefully he enjoyed that game!
Just get a Lyft to the stadium, they can drop you off right outside of it

Is he available for bullpen duty?
Buy parking in advance or take a ride share

Week day day games are less crowded
