Davis has 39 in home games with an ISO of .377. On the road he has 46 and .375. His home SLG is .686 and road it is .671.  But according to the Bill James handbook, Camden Yards has a HR rating of 129 for lefties over 2010-2012, meaning their HR rate is 29% higher there than average. So he could be helped by his park.
