Globe Life Field park factors

Globe Life Field ranks 28th of 29 on the three year rolling run index at 88, and 2026 on its own is running 94, a jump of 6 points against that baseline, which is the kind of gap worth watching rather than assuming. The most extreme number here is the triples index at 86, 15th 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 Globe Life 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

Elevation is 545 feet, close to the 518 foot league average, so altitude is not doing anything here. Home plate points north northeast toward centre field, at 30.0 degrees, which is what turns a wind forecast into a blowing out or blowing in read rather than a guess. The roof is listed as retractable in the MLB venue record, so the run environment changes with the roof call. Playing surface is artificial turf. The average fence sits 377 feet from the plate, 5 feet deeper than the league average, and the average wall is 7.8 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 7.8 feet against a league average of 9.7, and the average home run at this park travels 384 feet.

What it means for a bet

Totals

A genuine run suppressor, and the under is priced accordingly. The profitable version is usually the first five innings, where the park effect is strongest and the bullpen has not had a say yet.

Roof

With the roof open the run index is 81, closed it is 88, a 7 point swing. The roof decision is public before first pitch and the total does not always move with it.

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.
