4/15/2024 Pitcher hr factor impact?bodell82
In my experience the pitcher HR factor is pretty small. It seems that likelihood of a HR is mostly driven by the hitter, which I think makes sense. If deadball pitchers really faced the Bonds, McGwire, Judge types I would not expect them to suppress homers at their career rates.
