Cincinnati Reds’ Great American Ballpark doesn’t actually play like a minor league field

The Cincinnati Reds just set a new record for home runs allowed in a season. Their top three starting pitchers are all among the leaders in home runs allowed in the second half of the season. It turns out that GABP is a great place for sluggers.

Before we start to act like GABP is the same as Coors Field, we can all acknowledge the reason that GABP plays like a home run hitter’s haven. The Cincinnati Reds have a staff of flyball pitchers.

This isn’t debatable. No one in the National League gets more air outs than Dan Straily.
