Rockies, including Charlie Blackmon, dominate home/away splits

I used Baseball Reference's "Stathead" database to find all the players who had 2,000+ PAs in both home and away games in their careers. Then I ranked them by the difference between their home OPS and their away OPS. Their were 1,270 players.

Six of the top 10 are guys who played all or a good part of their careers with the Rockies: Charlie Blackmon, Carlos Gonzalez, Dante Bichette, Nolan Arenado, Larry Walker and Todd Helton.

Click here to see all players. It also shows AVG-OBP-SLG.

The table below shows the top 25 and the table after that shows the bottom 25.
