Alika Williams Total Hits Props • Pittsburgh
The #5 park in the game for boosting base hits to right-handed hitters, per the leading projection system (THE BAT), is PNC Park. Built 724 feet above sea level, PNC Park has the 6th-highest elevation among all stadiums, which generally leads to better offense. A correlation exists between high heat and more offense (and fewer strikeouts), and this game is expected to have the 5th-hottest temperature of all games on the slate at 83°. The wind projects to be blowing out to LF at 8-mph in this game, the 4th-most-favorable of the day for hitters. Alika Williams will receive the benefit of the platoon advantage against Brandon Williamson today.
