BudTugley Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 Which park is the easiest to hit a home run - distance, prevailing wind ?
McLovin Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 Every time I've been to Orangefield there is a killer wind blowing out to left field, which means HR time! Fun, but not as fun as peanut butter jelly time.
horndawg Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 Hamshire is the easiest and the hardest at the same time. 264 to right with the blue monster in right, but 407 to center...pick your poison.
bringiton Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 I dont know the deminsions at LCM, but a lot of balls fly out of there !
Gabe Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 The Gib at LCM or BC. Both parks seem to have at least a HR a game and usually several more. It could just be the hitters both teams usually have on their teams but the fields are great for HRs too.
Guest Orangeboy Posted March 25, 2008 Report Posted March 25, 2008 I have to agree with Gabe, its gotta be The "Chuck" in BC or the "Gib" in LCM. Load 'em up knock 'em in.
AggiesAreWe Posted March 25, 2008 Report Posted March 25, 2008 The Gib at LCM or BC. Both parks seem to have at least a HR a game and usually several more. It could just be the hitters both teams usually have on their teams but the fields are great for HRs too. I would tend to agree with this but with a disclaimer. The question was what ballpark was easiest to hit homers in. BC and LCM parks may field great amounts of homers, but I think it's because of the quality of hitters that play in those parks and not so much so the park itself. I believe the ballpark in High Island with the field facing towards the north and getting that constant gulf wind behind you, is the easiest to hit dingers in. You put BC, LCM and their opponents hitters in that park, and you better have a good supply of baseballs.
NSG2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Posted March 25, 2008 LCM does have great hitters, but I agree that their field is Homerun friendly.
