The Orioles have begun construction to move the left-field wall back about 30 feet and increase its height from 7 feet to 12 feet, according to a report by The Baltimore Sun,
Oriole Park at Camden Yards, which opened in 1992, has always been considered a hitter’s park. In 2021, 277 home runs were hit there, the most in baseball.
The distance to left field has been 333 feet, and 364 to left-center.
Construction should be complete by Opening Day, March 31st.
