Comerica Park: Five-Dollar Value Meals

TheDailyMeal.com: Cheapest Ways to Eat at the Ballpark

At Detroit's Comerica Park, adults and kids alike can dine on $5 "Value Meals" available from nearly a dozen vendors around the stadium.

For grown-ups, that means a hot dog, chips, and a soda. For kids, it's the same deal — with a juice box subbing for a Pepsi. No, the meals aren't exactly fine dining — but considering that plenty of ballparks charge upward of $5 for a single hot dog, this is one of the cheapest dining options among stadiums nationwide.

AT&T Park: Foodi...

Frugal baseball fans in California, take heart: Last year, ESPN ranked Angel Stadium third overall for ticket affordability, and first for inexpensive concessions.

It might have a little something to do with the beer. When new owner Arte Moreno took over, he slashed the price of draft beer, which will this season run $4.50 per pint. And this year, there's yet another bonus for brew fans: The stadium has now introduced a host of specialty craft beers as well.

Citizens Bank Pa...

Ranked the number one "park to party in all of baseball" by Bleacher Report last year, the Phillies home stadium also boats "some of the best food in baseball" — including two rival cheesesteak vendors — that's renowned as being some of the cheapest nosh, as well.

Ashburn Alley, a stadium concourse complete with several food vendors and picnic tables, offers reduced prices for fans who show up an hour before the game. The park also hosts regular $1 hot dog nights.

Consider Season ...

For foodies who also consider themselves serious baseball falls, consider shelling out for season tickets. Most major league teams offer major food discounts to season-ticket holders.

The Atlanta Braves, for example, offer a 33 percent discount on food and beverages at Turner Field for season-ticket holders. Other teams, including the Miami Marlins and Philadelphia Phillies, pony up access to all-you-can-eat lounges, exclusive on-site restaurants, or credit towards food and drink.

The San Francisc...

The San Francisco Giants' Park has one of the most impressive rosters of theme nights across the league, and most of them boast major appeal for wallet-watching food lovers.

Nearly every theme night (see them all here) includes cheap or free food — and game admission — in the ticket price. A few of the best: The Garlic Fest will include discounted portions of the stadium's famous Gilroy Garlic Fries; Brewfest offers fans three hours of beer tastings, along with a free commemorative mug; and Off the Cove Night lets you sample the delicious offerings of myriad San Fran food trucks.

Yankee Stadium: ...

Much like New York City's notoriously overpriced food, Yankee Stadium is host to some mega-pricy nosh: $9 single hamburgers, $8 deep-fried pickles, and $7 hot dogs among them.

Fortunately for baseball fans, Yankee Stadium is surrounded by a treasure trove of ethnically diverse, inexpensive Bronx restos. Some of which, including The Feeding Tree (cheap, tasty West Indian grub) and Sam's Soul Food, will also pack to-go orders that you can take right into the stadium.

MLB.com App

Major League Baseball's "At the Ballpark" app, introduced this year and available free on iPhones, offers plenty of perks, including interactive stadium maps and team records.

Most importantly, the app allows game attendees at five stadiums (including Citi Field and Citizens Bank Park) to order their food remotely, and have it delivered to their seats. Not to mention scrumptious savings: The app offers a rundown of discounts for any given game night, exclusive food coupons, and a listing of available foods and their prices — making it easier to find the vendor shilling the cheapest pretzels in the stadium.

Minute Maid Park...

Houston's Minute Maid Park joined a bevy of other major league teams this season, when the stadium loosened their policies to let fans bring out-of-stadium food and drink into games.

So pack a few water bottles to save cash, and then indulge in some of the park's new, far-out food options. The Smokey Joe Footlong hot dog comes topped with chili, smoked bacon, tomatoes, onions, and Cheddar cheese. "Best. Ballpark. Dog. Ever," according to the Houston Chronicle. Or try the stadium's Mac and Cheeseburger (a burger, topped with deep-fried mac and cheese) or their Dancing Chicken Sandwich (smoked bacon and sliced apple are involved).

Nationals Park: ...

The Washington Nationals boast some of the best discount nights among major league teams nationwide. And many of them, to the delight of D.C food fanatics, are oriented around cheap grub.

This season, fans can enjoy regular Beltway Burger nights, which include a burger, fries, and soda with a ticket purchase. Family fun days include a hot dog, chips, and soda with each ticket, and Miller Lite Party Nights mean two free beers included in every $25 ticket.

Progressive Fiel...

This season, the Cleveland Indians are sending their social media outreach into overdrive. And for fans who get involved online, the move means major food savings.

The team has an exclusive "Social Suite" — complete with waiters to cater to your every culinary whim (in other words, no waiting in line). Around a dozen fans will be selected for gratis suite access each game, with entry selections based on one's involvement in Indians-oriented social media. The food isn't free, but comped tickets and table service more than make up for that $6 hot dog.
