Ballpark Layouts
Someone mentioned a while back that they were misled on a website exactly how the wind was blowing in a specific stadium.
Here's a list I use when looking at wind; not sure all of the stadium names are up-to-date since they seem to change often these days. If anyone finds a discrepancy, let me know. Angel Stadium – Anaheim 1B to LF (S – N) AT&T Park – San Francisco Home to Center (W – E) Busch Std III – St. Louis Home to Center (SW – NE) Chase Field – Phoenix Home to Center (S – N) Citizens Bank Park – Philadelphia Home to Center (S – N) Comerica Park – Detroit Home to Center (NNW – SSE) Coors Field – Denver Home to Center (S – N) Dodger Stadium – Los Angeles Home to Center (S – N) Dolphins Stadium – Miami Home to Center (W – E) Fenway Park – Boston 1B to LF (S – N) Great American Ballpark – Cincinnati 3B to RF (N – S) Jacobs Field – Cleveland Home to Center (SW – NE) Kauffman Stadium – Kansas City Home to Center (SW – NE) McAfee Coliseum – Oakland Home to Center (SW – NE) Metrodome – Minneapolis Home to Center (SW – NE) Miller Park – Milwaukee 3B to RF (N – S) Minute Maid Park – Houston Home to Center (SE – NW) Nationals Park - Washington DC Home to Center (SW - NE) Oriole Park – Baltimore Home to Center (S – N) Petco Park – San Diego Home to Center (S-N) PNC Park – Pittsburgh 3B to RF (N - S) Rangers Ballpark – Arlington, TX 3B to RF (N – S) Rogers Centre – Toronto Home to Center (S – N) Safeco Field – Seattle Home to Center (SW – NE) Shea Stadium – Queens Home to Center (SSW – NNE) Tropicana Field – Tampa Home to Center (SW – NE) Turner Field – Atlanta Home to Center (SW – NE) US Cellular Field – Chicago Home to Center (NW – SE) Wrigley Field – Chicago Home to Center (SW – NE) Yankee Stadium – Bronx Home to Center (W – E)

Pico, it's just a tool for determining how wind might affect a particular ballgame.

Also, weather.com has a listing of all the games that when you click on it, an arrow shows on the diamond which way the wind is blowing. For example, follow this link:

Someone a week back said they had been misinformed by the weather.com listing, so that's why I stuck this info up.

Minute Maid is a hitter's park down the LF line and a pitcher's park to straightaway center.

The Ballpark That Dubya Built up in Arlington, Texas, is far more a hitter's park than Houston.
