to bad this is not in Launchpad Coors. There are more HR hit in Yankee Stadium than in Coors. The thin air and low humidity environment in Denver allows more hard hit balls, and the fly balls do tend to travel greater distances, but the field was built to accommodate with longer foul lines and power alleys. Because of the additional hard hit rate of baseballs and the larger outfield, Coors does allow a higher batting average and more non-home run extra base hits than most stadiums due to the inability of most outfielders to cover the greater distances to catch or cut hits off in the gaps. The rhetoric about the home runs in Colorado is over blown...There are many very long HR because of the extra carry, but there are no short home runs. Get it? Probably not. Once you’ve made up your mind, you tend to be hard to educate further...Never stop learning, Russ... |

I have seen both Short & Long Homers.
I know that in Denver I have a harder time breathing (for whatever that is worth)…
Coors by the way, is an Awful Beer at least for myself & Tequila.
I guess I will just have to listen to the announcers when a Homer is hit whether it was a Shortie OR a Lonbgie???
Yes, Tequila, NOW you can LAUGH!!!

There is a potential confound here.
"There are more HR hit in Yankee Stadium than in Coors. The thin air and low humidity environment in Denver allows more hard hit balls, and the fly balls do tend to travel greater distances, but the field was built to accommodate with longer foul lines and power alleys."
It is possible that there are more home runs hit in Yankee stadium because the Yankees are generally very good home run hitters (in terms of capacity). Not because of park differentials. We could test that by having the Yankees play in Coors for a year.
I wonder if they have a roof.

Beautiful throw from Tauchman. But I was a bit surprised the runner tried to score on that one.

Great play by Judge to catch Arenado off second. Rockies not helping themselves on the basepaths. That has a familiar ring.

I was not speaking to the Yankees in particular but to the vagaries of the ballpark. Re-read it... |
