Show Notes

Major League Baseball cities have experienced a significant temperature increase since 1970, with Toronto leading at a 5.4°F rise. Warmer air reduces drag, allowing balls to travel farther, especially with humidity. A University of Illinois study shows that every 1°F increase adds 0.33 feet to a balls distance. As temperatures continue to rise, expect more home runs and altered baseball statistics.
