Hopkins plays in an offensivly better park, I mean c'mon...what decent hitter would post HUGE numbers playing half of their games at a pakr like that where the wind is constantly blowing out at 20-30 mph...I know that the Park NMSU plays in had to come into play when looking at their numbers. I don't know this for sure...but I'd be willing to bet Hopkins numbers on the road arent nearly as good as his numbers at home...Just like NMSU as a team in general...
