Ballpark Factors & Dimensions For 2012-14 Seasons

Calculated using the methodology spelled out in this piece, here are runs-scored park factors for the 2012, 2013 and 2014 MMDA seasons.

We close with a review of three-year averages for the 17 teams that competed in the MMDA continuously from 2012 to 2014

MMDA Ballparks • 2014

3	Goldenrod	Central	8	4	16	4	107	1.037
4	Death Valley	Atlantic	12	12	12	12	107	1.036
5	West Side	Northeast	10	10	11	11	107	1.034
6	Elysian Fields	Pacific	7	7	8	8	106	1.030
	Northeast	Northeast	12	6	9	4	106	1.030

11	Rochester	Atlantic	10	10	8	8	102	1.012
12	Fighting Irish	Northeast	10	10	5	5	101	1.006
13	Lake County	Central	7	7	9	9	101	1.005
14	Jersey	Atlantic	7	5	2	5	100	1.000
15	Cape Cod	Northeast	4	10	16	2	96	0.981
16	Rosehill	Central	5	5	5	5	95	0.974
17	Mohawk Valley	Atlantic	2	2	6	6	92	0.962
18	California	Pacific	2	2	2	5	87	0.935
19	Spokane	Pacific	5	9	2	2	82	0.912
20	Northwest	Pacific	8	6	7	5	80	0.902

Based on the weighted value for ballpark singles and home runs—and the league's left/right split of 28/72—we would expect Death Valley (107) to finish with the highest park factor and California (87) with the lowest.  They didn't miss by much.
