I'd argue this is info I like to see. I always felt it was missing in previous versions and was glad to see it. Now I could see taking it off this screen and putting it on the game startup screen (first screen you see after hitting "manage" game. That way each time you travel into a new city for a series you get a view of the park. Yes, the factors are what they are and I know going into Boston what Fenway will be like. But I play in the NL and when I travel to Texas, Oakland, Seattle, or almost anywhere else I might think I know what they should be but I am more than likely wrong. Having it on the opening gameday screen or as it is now on the webcast lets me see right away if it is a hitters park or if it favors righties of lefties.
