What is the main reason for home field advantage?
When Baseball teams are put together the home field that the team plays in is taken into consideration. For example the Yankees with a short rightfield fence, and a deep left center field will look to build their team around left handed power hitters, and left handed pitchers. Left handed pitchers will pitch to mostly right handed batters and make them hit the ball to the deepest part of the ballpark. The Red Sox team will get players that would benefit by the short leftfield wall, (the Green Monster) at Fenway. Teams that play on artificial turf might lean towards ballplayers with speed, and play good defense. A team that plays in a ballpark that is hard to hit home runs in might go with better pitching, slap hitters, and base stealers. All giving the home team the advantage. An advantage to playing at home would also include Fan support, and the comfort of not having to travel and live in hotel rooms on the road. As teams are built around a ballpark, Yankee Stadium was built with a short rightfield fence with Babe Ruth in mind.
