That is all..

In case you're wondering, 8 times since 1985, a player has hit over .400 at home. 3 of the 8 are Rockies (Walker, Galarraga, and Cirillo). Cirillo hit .240 on the road his year.
Also, in 2004, Barry Bonds hit .412 with 26 HR, 115 BB and 25 K. He also missed 12 home games.
25 teams have hit over .300 at home since 1980. 11 of these are the Rockies.
Meanwhile, only 1 player has hit over .400 on the road in the last 30 years. Any guesses.?
