Citi Field park factors

Citi Field ranks 19th of 29 on the three year rolling run index at 98, and the 2026 season alone is at 94, close enough to the baseline that the park is behaving the way it has for three years. The most extreme number here is the triples index at 80, 10th lowest in baseball on the three year rolling view.

Park factor history

Five single seasons and the three year rolling view Baseball Savant shows by default. Reading them side by side is how you tell a park that has changed from a park that had one odd year.

Statcast park factors for Citi Field. 100 is league average. The strikeout column reads from the hitter's side, so a number above 100 means the park suppresses contact.

The ballpark itself

Essentially at sea level, 10 feet, where heavy air and any marine influence work against carry. Home plate points north northeast toward centre field, at 13.0 degrees, which is what turns a wind forecast into a blowing out or blowing in read rather than a guess. Playing surface is grass. The average fence sits 370 feet from the plate, 2 feet shallower than the league average, and the average wall is 8.2 feet high.

Measured fence distance and wall height from the Statcast park dimensions record for 2026, with the difference against the 30 park average in the adjacent column. Average wall height here is 8.2 feet against a league average of 9.7, and the average home run at this park travels 378 feet.

What it means for a bet

Totals

Close to neutral on runs, which makes this a park where the pitching matchup and the weather carry the total rather than the venue.

Handedness

The home run index favours right handed hitters by 11 points (106 against 95). When a lineup is stacked the other way, the park is doing less for them than the headline number suggests.

Every index on this page is a three year rolling figure unless the column says otherwise, and all of it is league relative: 100 is average, not neutral in an absolute sense. Park factors describe the venue, not tonight's pitching matchup, and they are the starting point of a number rather than the whole of it.
