San Diego is a 6 point diffenence with the next team in the batting average category. I believe it should be more like a 4 point difference in batting average. 5 point difference is the worse difference I could see. Your formula must be leaning more towards powere numbers then the very common single.
Other then the batting average number slight diiffence I see, good job Matty.
I took averages of hits over the past few seasons, which came out as:
67% 1B
20% 2B
02% 3B
11% HR
Then calculating the factor for each individual hit gives you the BA factor. I believe a lot of the reason for the very low BA factor is home runs at other parks become routine flyouts in Petco because of the deep alleys.
Though this has opened up a slight tweak. Mogul doesn't think moving the walls has any effect on BA, but I think realistically it actually does. So in that respect moving the walls will have a slight effect in the park's BA factor.
