at Yankee stadium unkind to right handed hitters new York up Yankee stadium has been the dwelling place of some of the greatest Home run hitters in major league history babe Lou Mickey Between they clouded More than homers in their if youll All three were left handed hitters Mantle was a switch hitter and they took advantage of the stadiums Short porch in right hitting in Yankee stadium has always been a Paradise for but for right handed hitters it has been More like Paradise the dimensions in left Field at Yankee stadium have turned Many balls that would have been Home runs in other Parks into Long this season the Yankees moved the fences in so fans can visit the Monu ments Section in the for right handed the fences Are still another zip code the Fence in left Field reads 8 feet Shorter than last left Cen known As death was brought in 19 but it is still 411 feet Center Field was taken in 7 feet from 417 to even after the hitting Home runs in Yankee stadium is no most Loftfield fences in other major league Parks Are anywhere from 30 to 40 feet Shorter than at Yankee and no stadium even approaches the distance in left last season there were Only 111 homers hit at Yankee stadium 62 by the Yankees the third fewest in any american league Park despite the fences being that total Doest figure to change by one reason Why new York didst hit Many Home runs last season is because they have revamped their lineup from a predominantly left handed hitting team to right the Reggie Jacksons and Mickey mantles have been replaced by Dave win Field and Don in his four seasons with the Winfield has clouded 101 Home but he says has lost about 30 homers at the stadium because of the lengthy he thinks bringing in the fences will but not by yes he should hit More homers but its still a Long said who hit nine of his 19 Home is last year at Yankee in not going to change my if the Law of averages this is still the big Gest Ballpark in who led the Yankee with 27 homers last says its still Early in the season to Tell if the Shorter distances will Aid right handed i dont know what the future holds for Home runs and said who hit 10 Yankee stadium homers last ill know better later in the we Haven hit Many out there it looks a Long Way 379 feet is despite the Shorter Yankee coach Jeff Torborg Doest think pitchers will alter their style in Yankee they might do some different but it wont change their said a former major league Catcher who caught three no i when i was a if the wind was i might Challenge them Down the Middle and let them hit a Long Fly Ball out they pitchers certainly wont change their its still an honest its not a Short its still Over 400 in addition to the Yankees pulling in their the astros did it in the Astro the dome has never been kind to Power Only 47 Home runs were hit there last the lowest total for any major league the fences there now read 330 feet in right and left Field 10 less than last 400 in Center minus 6 and 380 in the Power alleys 12 Philadelphia Mike Schmidt visited the Astrodome a couple of weeks and he noticed one thing it int any easier hit Ting Home runs now than it was All i know is that i hit three balls hard there that would have been out of any other said but they were just Long outs they moved the fences in 10 or 12 but the Ball still Doest carry i dont see any difference at chiefs Crown favored to
