    Best park to hit (Batters eye)

    Just curious as to which park has the best hitter's eye or backdrop in center field for you.

    Also which park do you have trouble picking the ball up.

    For me , the best is Pittsburgh and the hardest for me is Cleveland.

    To me the best is Texas or KC and the worst for some reason is Arizona.
    MLB: Texas Rangers
    Soccer: FC Dallas, Fleetwood Town
    NCAA: SMU, UTA
    NFL: Dallas Cowboys
    NHL: Dallas Stars
    NBA: Dallas Mavericks

        Can't remember if it was during the day or during dusk...but facing a LH at AT&T Park was not easy for me in '09.

            Yes, this irritates me endlessly...the lights are not on full blast in the retractable roof stadiums because it's still slightly light outside the stadium and it's dark. In real life, Arizona is considered to be probably the best background for batters, and it's so dark. I really really really hope the roofs are closed or the lights just go on full blast from the first pitch like they should be. And it is dark some places when the game starts, it's not always dusk, but that's another debate.

              I didn't know there was anybody else from AKron on here. Nice.

              I am best at Safeco, Angels stadium and for some reason Fenway. I am terrible at the Oakland place and White Sox place.

                GABP in Cincy is always slugfest.

                Maybe I will run a franchise with them in MLB 10.

                  Left field at the Astros park was easy, I struggled at toronto and arizona

                    I bat from the outfield view and AT&T parks hitters backdrop is the worst in the game because of the 2 annoying scrolling billboards that make it near impossible to pick up the ball off a LH pitcher

                    The OP should edit the first post to include best outfield & backstop hitters eye backdrops because some of us do bat from that view :wink:

                      LOL....Arizona has one of the best backdrops when you bat from the pitcher view but Toronto apparently sucks from both views

                        I didn't think Arizona was that bad from hitters eye. Why do you like to bat from the outfield? Just curious.
                        Good ones: Rangers ballpark, Arizona, Camden yards, Houston.
                        Bad: Brewers in daytime

                          I can see pitch breaks and judge depth perception better from the outfield view....Plus I love seeing my teams batting stances and home run swings from the same view I watch real games from

                            I thought it might have been so you can see where the catcher puts his glove right before the pitch.

                              Comerica Park. I hit about 50 pts higher, just can't hit in the air to center. I had about maybe 2 homers to center for the whole season.
