I think it's at the 4:10 mark on this video. I remember it, it was a day game:

I disagree, Frobingo, although I do see your points. The steroid era has come and gone (allegedly) and if it wasn't done by someone during that time, I have a hard time thinking it'll be done now. The other thing is that Eutaw Street and the Warehouse both sit above the playing field at Camden Yards by a pretty decent amount. If the Warehouse was level to the playing field I'd be more inclined to agree that it can be done...and I think it'd be done already. The "true distance" that the ball has to go as a result is really farther than the 450+ feet or so. I'm not sure how to do the math on that, nor do I really care as I hate math. But I'm sure someone here who's adept with numbers can figure out the extra distance that you have to account for due to the playing level being below the Warehouse. Then try to see if any homers hit in the Statcast Era would have hit it. I'd be curious to see. Anyway, the best chance to hit it, as you noted, is directly down the line. That's hard to do because if a batter pulls it, it'll tend to hook a little.

@SteveA that one he hit off Pennington, I was surprised THAT didn't hit the Warehouse. If it hasn't been hit in a game yet, I don't think anyone ever will.

ESPN did an article on it. Orioles need to troll Buster Olney. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/32318457/2021-mlb-playoffs-baltimore-orioles-playing-spoiler-trolling-heck-boston-red-sox

That's still not enough of a gap to justify 155 homers at home vs. 92 on the road. Even if you were to take the average pitch per plate appearance and figure that into the difference between 3217 and 2908, I don't think that justifies a 60~ homer gap. Dunno, just thinking out loud.

How many pitches thrown at home vs. the road? Again, not sure where to look. You're probably right, Camden Yards is a bandbox.

In regards to how homer-happy the stadium is, I think you need to look at the no-doubters...the ones that would leave any park. I know they keep track of this, I just don't know where to look for it. And then look at the homers given up that would be out of 50% of parks, 25% of parks, etc. But overall, if we had better pitching, we wouldn't be giving up as many homers. I know Camden Yards is a small park that's offense friendly but I'm betting a lot of homers given up by our pitchers would be out in most parks.

I think the most hitter-friendly aspect of Camden Yards is who's standing on the mound wearing the home team jerseys.

Hard to believe there's a team out there worse than us. But there is. Congrats to the Diamondbacks.

I'm wondering if it'll be under .290 by the end of the weekend.

Just to make you mad, I'm betting.

Oh come on.

That was awesome! That's what you get for bringing your infield in Cora you dumb mfer!!

A whole season of good hitting. And even then, gotta see if it carries over to next year.

K-Gut's recent hot streak is giving me false hope that he can turn into a good hitter.

I know. It's just funny that we can consider him as an asset. Weird to think about his performance in a positive light.

Great play!

Stout and obnoxious looking. Sure.

THAT WAS A STRIKE

Lol Lopez as a bridge. You're on a roll tonight bro.

Oh well. Guess he'll have to settle for the most unexpected 30/30 season in history.

I hear ya, but he's also hitting less than he weighs so...I dunno, it's a toss up. Jones can't really do anything right at the plate at the moment, I think we can all agree on that, though.

Ah, I don't think Cedric is gonna finish as a .300 hitter this year. WALK MOUNTCASTLE INTENTIONALLY? Candy ass bitches.

Yeah, Phil, you lost me on this one, big guy. It's not like he was a threat to get a hit.
