The above is an article with the table in it...

Basically, Park Factors are a meausre of the park's effect on run scoring... 1000 is the base case. Numbers above 1000 indicate that a park is hitter friendly, or helps create more runs... A park factor of 1100 would indicate that it increases runs by about 10%.... Pac Bell has a Park Factor of 920 from 99-01, indicating that run scoring was decreased in that park, and it was a "pitchers park"
