well first you know that the BPHR is located on teh card by the # symbol right?

So then W power hitters will NEVER have any, because they have no power. They may have some natural HR power, but no BPHR rolls.

Tha BPHR roll, wether off the hitters or pitchers card is the same, it uses the parks HR rating to see if it is a HR of a Fly(B). The rating is of course a roll of 1-20, it if is = or under the BP rating for HR for the park, is is a HR. So for Shea, it is good for a LH hitter to ht a HR, but not a RH hitter.

geekor covers it well. I would add though that the function of the power N verses power W is for the # on the pitchers cards. To get a HR on a # roll off the pitchers card you have to be power N. A power W means you cannot get a # HR off the pitchers card.

What does the W turn into then when you get a BPHR on the pitchers card?

Is it a Fly(B) or a single?

What about a balanced park. i.e. not a hitter or pitcher's park??

Actually, this *should* be W hitters will never have an HR off of the pitcher's card, period. They *could* have a bphr off of their own card, but
usually (if not always!) W hitters don't have bphrs.
