U.S. Cellular Field, Chicago
US Cellular Field (née 'New' Comiskey Park) is the modernist replacement for the beloved old Comiskey Park in south-side Chicago, and serves as the home for the White Sox. A near-symmetrical and antiseptic park dominated by a bland concrete walkway, The Cell is a tightly-packed park that is good for power hitters. The 330 and 335 corners in left and right are common enough, but the 375 power alleys and 400 foot center field fence receive nice boosts from prevailing winds, and no wall in the park is higher than eight feet. Narrow foul areas also work to help hitters remain in the game.
