Royals Review Laboratory: What makes Kauffman Stadium a neutral park?

In the opening salvo for the series, we give the worm to the early bird, the first email we received from emailer John.

I noticed Kauffman is generally listed as a neutral park (hitter v. pitcher). I’ve always believed it is a pitcher’s park, but the Royals had such bad pitching for so long that the numbers skewed more to the middle as a result. If you can look into it I’d greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

This is definitely an often disconnect you hear vs what you read.
