hello
been trying to find this answer for a long time.
see if anyone here knows.
in major league parks, why are some home dugouts along the 3rd base line, and others along the first base line?
assuming the home team can choose, why would the a's, for example, choose third? while the giants, for example, choose first?

i personally belive it all depends on where the sun is durning most of the games. I know i would rather sit in the shad rather than the sun.
