My son and I are headed to Cleveland from Central Pennsylvania next Tuesday and Wednesday for our annual baseball trip; we try to see a couple new parks every year.  So I've read about all I can read online, but now am looking for some local knowledge concerning Jacobs Field.  Can anybody give me recommendations on the following:

Parking around the stadium

Is there anyplace around the stadium to eat before the game

Things in the area we should see during the afternoon

We like to get to the park early, watch BP and explore.  Anything specifically we should be looking for.  I've read about Heritage Park.

Wednesday night we plan on seeing the Aeros in Akron.  Same questions apply.

Thanks.
