I've always thought it would be cool if more parks were like Sulphur Dell. That way there really would be a home field advantage. I think parks should have the crazy dimensions like Enron (oops, I mean Minute Maid) in Houston. Home fielders (outfielders, anyway) then have a distinct advantage because they know how to "play the wall". Ebbets Field was like that. It had a right field wall that wasn't quite perpendicular to the ground, and it messed up visitors all the time.
