28.6. Players React to Stadium Changes

[agrudez]

For those whom aren't already aware, the Phantoms adjusted their park this offseason to push their LHB HRs to the max of 1.2. The other modifiers for the stadium have remained neutral, but this one change alone has arguably made Huntsville the second most LHB friendly stadium in the otherwise largely pitcher friendly JL - behind only HFX (1.2 LHB HR, 1.07 LHB AVG). As such, there have been mixed feelings amongst the Huntsville clubhouse - here are some snippets.
