Re: Home Park Effects
Here’s the info. you requested about what effect the new park is having on our pitching and hitting so far – although bear in mind this is really early and the sample size is small (we’ve played 24 home games so far, and 18 on the road). It will be a useful start we can build on and track across this season and future seasons, though.
First off, Black Sox Park surely is acting like a pitcher-friendly stadium so far. To look at the stats, our staff loves pitching here – and our lineup prefers the road.
Here are a few tables that break things down:
