In 2021, the last season before the Orioles moved the left field wall back by 26 feet in some spots, and added six feet of height to a barrier affectionately termed “Walltimore,” Camden Yards was a hitter’s haven. It ranked No. 3 in Statcast’s Park Factors, with a 105 rating on a scale where 100 is neutral, and 124 – tied for second – in home runs.

The Baltimore Orioles will alter the left-field dimensions at Camden Yards for the second time in three years ahead of Opening Day 2025, top baseball operations executive Mike Elias revealed on Friday.

After adjusting the left field dimensions at Oriole Park before the 2022 season, Baltimore will make alterations ahead of the 2025 campaign.

The Orioles last changed the dimensions of the left-field wall, moving it back, between the 2021 and 2022 seasons in an effort to pursue a more neutral and pitcher-friendly array at Camden Yards. At the time, Oriole Park was "extremely homer prone," as Elias put it.

Orioles general manager Mike Elias announced in a news conference on Friday afternoon that the expanded left field fence dimensions will be changing after three seasons. The new fence will be somewhere in between where things used to be and where things are now.
