Pretty tentative slide there by Heisey at home. Good call by Berry to send him there.

Hersisher talking about the ballpark giving up runs after a single, double, single. For some reason, it's really bothering me tonight. Are those hits not hits in other ballparks?

The park gives hitters confidence. Supposedly.

The Braves announcers were the worst in that series where we swept them, using the term 'bandbox' about 100 times a night.

No, you don't get it. It's all about the "confidence" that they have at the plate because of the ballpark.

There should be fewer extra-base hits at least in GABP because of the size.

It is a bunch of crap. The other team plays in the same conditions.

I remember the NYY announcers being beside themselves when they first played there years ago. The Reds beat up on them the first 2 games. Then the Yanks broke out in game 3 and you didnt hear a word about the park.
