HR/FB Park Factors
Posted by Dan TurkenkopfJust a quick hit to share park factors for HR/FB rate.
I used BIP data and the methodology from Baseball Reference to determine simple HR/FB park factors for 2009 and 4-year weighed factors (weights are 5,3,2,1).
Update: My spreadsheet was thrown off by the Rays' name change. I've corrected the numbers below
Without further adieu, here's the list:
Team Park 2009 4 Year Angels Angel Stadium 110 96 Astros Minute Maid Park 104 108 Athletics McAfee Colisuem 95 92 Blue Jays Rogers Centre 105 108 Braves Turner Field 90 95 Brewers Miller Park 108 106 Cardinals Busch Stadium 86 84 Cubs Wrigley Field 97 103 DiamondbacksChase Field 99 106 Dodgers Dodger Stadium 89 95 Giants Pacific Bell Park 104 95 Indians Jacobs Field 75 88 Mariners Safeco Park 95 96 Marlins Dolphins Stadium 109 99 Mets Citi Field 98 98 Nationals Nationals Stadium 91 92 Orioles Oriole Park at Camden Yar 109 115 Padres PETCO Park 73 75 Phillies Citizens Bank Park 109 94 Pirates PNC Park 105 94 Rays Tropicana Field 110 111 Rangers The Ballpark at Arlington 98 97 Red Sox Fenway Park 98 90 Reds Great American Ballpark 121 114 Rockies Coors Field 103 112 Royals Kaufman Stadium 73 78 Tigers Comerica Park 94 101 Twins Metrodome 109 96 White Sox US Cellular Field 115 118 Yankees New Yankee Stadium 130 130
