Looking for an old, very comprehensive stadium spreadsheet

Van Lingle Mungo · 02-01-2023, 04:40 AM

I used to have a spreadsheet made by someone in the community - I am going to guess this was in the mid-2000s or so, but I'm not 100% certain - which was very comprehensive. It had data from hundreds of stadiums, including major league, minor league, negro league, independent, and I think even maybe some college parks. As much as possible, it included stadium capacities, wall distances and heights, noted if it had a grass or turf surface, and also included a way to calculate ballpark factors (I think). I would absolutely love to get my hands on this if anyone knows what I'm talking about and still has a copy.

Never seen that, but Retrosheet's Parks section will give you a lot of what you mention.

It was gambo's 2007 chart that I was thinking of. Thanks a ton!
