Park Factors
Last Updated: 12:23 PM
The typical Dodger Stadium forecast is expected in Los Angeles this evening. It will be around 80° at start time with the usual single-digit wind blowing out to right-center. The venue will be playing close to its season-long average for Game 4.
The wind is expected to angle in from right at Wrigley Field this evening. While it's mostly right-to-left and only single-digit speeds, the in-blowing direction is a notable factor at MLB's most wind-receptive venue. Most of the pitcher-friendly rating on Thursday comes from the chilly temperatures as it will be in the 50s for the late 8 pm local start.

Plays deep down the lines and particularly shallow to center field. | +0.41 | -0.36 | +0.06 | +0.28 | |||||
Wrigley Field 9:08 | -23% | -12% | -11% | -24% | Extreme | 7  | 7 | 6  | 55° | 55° | 54° | 65% | 1006 | Medium | 596 | -2 | Poor | Bad | The most wind-receptive venue in baseball (by a lot). Out-blowing wind tends to correlate with warmer temperatures, and vice versa. The Corners are very deep and guarded by 16-foot-tall-fences. An extremely shallow porch in left-center makes for a cheap home run target. | -0.53 | -0.41 | -1.12 | -2.09 |
