Shea Stadium used to lead the universe in strikeouts and walks.

This was due to the dead worst lighting system in all of major league baseball.

Do they have this fixed? Is there a big ballpark differential for strikeouts and walks?

If this is NOT fixed, then a very fine pitcher - like Santana - will have wonderful seasons year after year.

Doc Gooden's record record during day games at Shea was MUCH worse than his night record, ditto Tom Seaver. Much higher ERA's and WHIP's, IIRC.

Towards the bottom, in the analysis section: New York Mets - Stadium
