They might give up less home runs, but they'll give up the same amount (or more) of line drives and runs. But Tim Lincecum should have less damaging fly balls than he would at Yankee Stadium. When a batter hits the ball in the air, there's less of a chance of it carrying out in Citi Field. Citi Field inhibits fly balls from being beneficial, but it's still average/good for line drives. There's always luck involved, but in general well struck balls/line drives are more likely to be hits, and fly balls are more likely to be outs. Good pitchers give up less line drives, and less of their fly balls will end up as home runs. though I'm not convinced players consider the park too hard when they sign. Lee went to Philly and CC went to Yankee Stadium. Then why is Citi considered a pitcher's park?
