loanDepot Park — Dimensions, Park Factors & Intelligence

loanDepot Park is the home ballpark of the Miami Marlins, located in Miami, Florida. The stadium opened in 2012 and seats approximately 37,446 fans. It sits at an elevation of roughly 10 feet above sea level and operates in the Eastern (ET) time zone. The playing surface is grass. Its retractable roof lets the club open or close the park depending on weather. From a hitter's and pitcher's perspective, the outfield measures 344 feet down the left-field line, 386 feet to left-center, 400 feet to straightaway center, 387 feet to right-center, and 335 feet down the right-field line. Its deepest posted distance is center field at 400 feet, while the most reachable corner is right field at 335 feet. As one of the 30 active Major League Baseball ballparks, loanDepot Park combines these fixed dimensions, its 10-foot elevation, and its retractable configuration to shape how the ball carries, how pitchers attack the zone, and how run scoring plays out across a season. The Miami Marlins compete in the NL East of the National League, and this venue serves as their fixed home environment for all home games on the schedule. Relative to a typical big-league outfield, the 400-foot center-field distance and 339-foot average corner here place loanDepot Park on the deeper, more spacious end of the league spectrum.

As a retractable-roof ballpark at roughly 10 feet of elevation, loanDepot Park is shaped by real weather. Warmer air and lower humidity let the ball carry farther, while cool, damp, or heavy marine air suppresses fly-ball distance. Wind direction matters most: a breeze blowing out turns fly balls into home runs, while an inbound wind knocks them down. When the roof is closed, those weather effects are largely neutralized. These effects are evergreen tendencies; EdgeRanked layers live forecasts on top of them for game-day projections.

loanDepot Park carries a distinct on-field character driven by its geometry, elevation, and exposure to the elements. The park stands at about 10 feet of elevation in Miami, Florida, a factor that influences how far well-struck balls travel and how much break pitchers can generate. The corners are close to symmetrical (344 feet to left, 335 feet to right), so neither batter handedness gains an obvious pull-side advantage from the foul lines. Center field plays a fairly standard 400 feet. With a retractable roof, conditions can swing between fully exposed and climate-controlled depending on whether the roof is open, which can meaningfully change how the ball carries on a given night. On EdgeRanked's deterministic park-intelligence scale, loanDepot Park plays close to neutral for run scoring, grading 47/100 for run environment and 45/100 for home runs. Its extra-base-hit environment rates 66/100, reflecting how the gaps and 400-foot center field reward doubles and triples, while pitcher friendliness sits at 55/100. The natural-grass surface plays at a conventional infield speed, with hop and reaction times typical of a grass field. With a seating capacity of roughly 37,446, the park's scale and configuration also influence foul territory and the overall feel of at-bats for both hitters and pitchers. Located in Miami, Florida within the Eastern (ET) time zone, loanDepot Park carries an EdgeRanked weather sensitivity rating of 38/100, a measure of how much day-to-day conditions can move its scoring environment relative to other Major League ballparks. Signature characteristics include: Retractable roof (usually closed); Climate-controlled; Pitcher-friendly. Taken together, these traits make loanDepot Park a unique environment within Major League Baseball, and they feed directly into EdgeRanked's park-aware projection, weather, and results coverage for Miami Marlins games.
