Ok, a few more innings into the game and I'm seeing some fly ball distances that are a bit off. I'm using the 2006 Petco Park that I have as part of the archive on my website. In this last example I had a hit to (7D), which in my park, is located at the warning track where the wall is 350'. The text read that the ball traveled 313'. That was followed by a fly out to (7) which was 308', much better. The a fly out to (78) that was 303', again good. So far, the only issues I have seen are with hits to the Deep locations. Had a fly out to Deep Center (8D) that was 345', but the wall is 396' at that part of the park. I'm beginning to think that maybe I am not putting my Deep locations in the right place. Shaun, do you agree that the warning track is too deep for these hits? It really looks that way... If I pull all of the (D) locations in, however, I don't think we'll ever "see" any hits that make it to the area near the warning track, correct? It would be super cool if you could take my Petco Park and modify it to how it would work best with the game, then send it to me to use as a guide so I could re-do all of the park on my website.
