Maybe I'm missing it, but if not, I'm guessing that that's why they don't care- they dont' put any stock in a random sample like that, especially with Dice's WTFluctuations.<BR/><BR/>Any ideas about why dice's road era is better? I never put much stock in the home road splits myself. At Fenway, it's slightly hitters friendly and the wall can play a part, but those are the only things i can think of. The wall doesn't seem to really affect dice's game.Patriots Filmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06488862194000042382noreply@blogger.com
