Sure, ok. From 2002-2004, their team OPS went in the tank. It finally
started to rebound in 2005, but their league leading pitching kept the
park factor numbers depressed.

Yes, I'm sure Damon's numbers will just tank in Yankee Stadium, a place
nortious for being unfriendly to left handed hitters, LOL.
