Citi Field, New York
The home of the New York Mets since 2009, Citi Field in Queens, NY is a large open air stadium that favors pitchers, though some dimensional adjustments in 2012 and again in 2015 have made it a little more offense-friendly. The park's facade echoes old Ebbett's field, but the seating and concourse layout is much more like a modern PNC or Coors Field. The concessions are modern New York, from Shake Shack sliders to Blue Smoke BBQ. Winds in the park vary widely from day to day, but no conditions ever offset the pitching advantage the park provides. The field is asymmetrical, and has always measured 335' to the (orange-colored) left field foul pole and 330 to the one in right. The 375-foot right-center power alley has been twice-reduced from its original 415, while dead center remains 408 feet from home plate.
