Opposite-field shots

Posted By Dan

Having managed 3 LL teams now, I have to congratulate PureBaseball on the level of realism it attains. The only thing I've noticed that seems a bit off is the number of opposite-field homers - seems to me most HR's, even by pull hitters, go the opposite way. Does it seem like this to anyone else? If so, I'm wondering about the implications for drafting players in an upcoming RT league: if I draft a ballpark like my favorite (Ballpark at Arlington, which dramatically favors LH pull hitters), is the simulation going to have my LH pull hitters sending long outs into left field death valley?
