15 games, ranked by how run-friendly the park and today's weather are
How to read this: every game starts from its park's season scoring rate
(+17% park means 17% more runs score there than in an average park), then today's
weather moves it: heat and wind blowing out add runs, wind blowing in and rain take them away.
The big number is the sum: how much higher or lower than average scoring the conditions point to.

Park percentages come from this season's real final scores (runs per game at
the park vs the same teams on the road). Weather adjustments: wind aligned with the park's orientation
(up to ±10), temperature vs a 70°F baseline, and a rain penalty when precipitation is forecast.
Domes and closed roofs are weather-neutral. O/U is the sportsbook total for the game, as a market
reality check. Pitcher and bullpen numbers are season stats from the props feed; HR rates are per
batter faced.
