The #8 venue in the game for boosting base hits to left-handed hitters, per the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Progressive Field. Built 673 feet above sea level, Progressive Field has the 7th-highest altitude in Major League Baseball, which tends to lead to better offense. High temperatures are strongly correlated with more offense (and fewer whiffs), and the weather report predicts the 5th-highest temperatures of all games on the slate at 81°. Home field advantage typically improves batter stats in all categories, and Brayan Rocchio will hold that advantage in today's matchup. Brayan Rocchio has made substantial improvements with his Barrel% in recent games, upping his 4.5% seasonal rate to 10% in the past week.
