Meffert Method Aims to Pinpoint Home Run Distances
New technique developed in Minnesota by Len Meffert measures fence distances and seat layouts at Metropolitan Stadium to calculate exact homerun feet. The method uses trigonometry from press box angles to 17 spots, accurately predicting distances up to 499 feet, with center field noted at 414 feet. It could extend to other parks and players, offering a precise tool for homerun calculations alongside wind conditions.
