==== Dimensions ==== Although the distance to center field has been marked at 395 feet since 1973, it is still actually {{convert|400|ft|m}} to center, as has been the case since 1969. Two {{convert|395|foot|adj=on}} signs that were erected in 1973 are to the left and right of dead center.<ref name="Cathedrals" /> However, curvature of the fence between the posted distance signs is not exactly radial from home plate, thus the distance from home plate directly to center field is most likely {{convert|5|ft}} farther than the posted {{convert|395|ft|m}}.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Dodger Stadium |url=http://www.andrewclem.com/Baseball/DodgerStadium.html |access-date=2025-04-14 |website=Clem's Baseball}}</ref> {{As of|2025}}, the center field distance of {{convert|395|ft|m}} is indicated at straight away center field.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Kerry Carpenter flies out to center fielder Andy Pages. {{!}} 03/29/2025 |url=https://www.mlb.com/video/kerry-carpenter-flies-out-to-center-fielder-andy-pages |access-date=2025-04-14 |website=MLB.com |language=en}}</ref> With the opening of [[Citi Field]] and the demolition of [[Shea Stadium]] in 2009, Dodger Stadium became the only stadium with symmetrical outfield dimensions remaining in the National League.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Vickars |first=Sam |date=April 2019 |title=The Irregular Outfields of Baseball |url=https://thedataface.com/2019/04/sports/baseballs-irregular-outfields |access-date=2025-04-14 |website=The DataFace}}</ref> The only other symmetrical field is [[Kauffman Stadium]] in [[Kansas City, Missouri|Kansas City]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Park Factors and the Air |url=https://baseball-analytica.com/posts/2022-05-13/park-factors-and-air |access-date=2025-04-14 |website=Baseball Analytica}}</ref>
