What moves the ball at Truist Park
Elevation
At 1,001 ft, Truist Park is the 3rd-highest park in MLB. That is well short of Denver, but the air is still a little thinner than at the coastal parks, which gives fly balls a small, steady boost.
Temperature
Warm air is less dense than cold air, so a hot night at Truist Park carries better than a cold one with the same wind. Early-season and late-season night games here play noticeably heavier than mid-summer afternoons.
Humidity
Humid air is slightly lighter than dry air, so higher humidity helps carry a little — the opposite of what most people expect. It is a minor factor next to elevation, temperature and wind.
Wind
Wind blowing out toward the outfield adds carry and wind blowing in takes it away, and speed matters as much as direction. Truist Park's stored center-field bearing is being re-checked, so this page does not say which compass wind blows out here yet.
