It is cool that Marcus is considering the aspects of physics and ball park configuration and how they affect pitcher v Hitter outcomes.
Some months ago, I ran into (dare I say?) a vocal minority who said that tracking Earned Runs accurately is not important and it would be too difficult to correct and Marcus should spend time on other things (graphics, perhaps?) and, besides, I shouldn't care about Earned Runs anyway.
I may be wrong about this, but, it seems to me that getting the parameters for what is an earned run and unearned run coded correctly is vastly simpler than getting the particulars of a line drive home run, in any other park, resulting in a Single/batter out at second base, 7-4, at Fenway.

Oh yeah, you remind me of this. I really want to see earned/unearned runs been scored correctly in this upcoming version
