Sox fan looking for a little help

Sox (White, not Red) fan coming in peace to ask a few questions about your sweet looking ballpark. My son and I are heading to Houston when our teams match up in the middle of June. I'm considering seats in Crawford box cuz I think that'll be a cool view, and I'm hoping my son can interact with some Sox players so I'm considering seats close to field level in 111 – 105 (definitely going to Saturday's game and possibly Sunday's).

Any advice on opposing player interaction? Any stadium advice? I wanted to do a stadium tour, but timing doesn't work with our flight schedule and no tours on Sundays. We're staying within walking distance of the park, any food / restaurant recommendations in the area? Not classy restaurants, just good food. Anyone know what hotel opposing teams stay at? Maybe that's a team specific thing and not a Houston thing though.

Any thoughts would be appreciated! TIA!

Edit: is Discovery Green worth checking out? My son is 10.
