Bohm’s Dislike for the Stadium

Alec Bohm, a player for the Philadelphia Phillies, has shown significantly better hitting performance on the road compared to Citizens Bank Park over the past three seasons, particularly when the wind blows out. Statistical analysis reveals that Bohm struggles when the wind is blowing in at home, with a wRC+ of just 37, indicating he performs poorly under these conditions relative to his teammates. The article explores potential reasons for this, including Bohm’s low attack angle and his tendency to hit straight, which may make him particularly susceptible to adverse wind effects. The findings suggest that Bohm’s home performance could be influenced by environmental factors, though the data may also reflect small sample size anomalies.
