Apparently there's a theory that the gradual slope of the seats at the stadium creates a launching ramp for wind to shoot out the opening in right field. So it'll be kinda like Wrigley. When the wind is blowing out to right field, balls are going to fly.

And when you look at a picture of the stadium like this, it actually seems feasible.

Where did you hear this, because it seems reasonable. It is crazy how homeruns are flying out of the park in Yankee Stadium
