The White Sox will be on the road against the Rays on May 6th. First pitch is set for 6:50 pm ET. At that time, it will be a warm 79° with a modest breeze (9 mph from left to right). No chance of rain.

It will be played in a fixed dome so no weather impact.

HRForce--

Based on wind, humidity, ballpark and various other proprietary factors, HRForce measures how many extra HRs should be hit in a game. Not active (fixed dome).

More about Guaranteed Rate Field

Overall, Guaranteed Rate Field is a fairly neutral ballpark (average runs scored per game is close to league average). It is about 10% easier to hit home runs there. A lot of that is due to the smaller outfield and tighter dimensions. Guaranteed Rate Field used to be a pitcher's haven but when they brought the fences in in 2001, it became quite a bit easier to hit long balls.

Being in the windy city, weather plays a role in game play but not as much as you'd think. The stadium itself is "protected" and encircled by architecture and billboards so a lot of those heavy winds are muted inside the field of play. The cold and rain certainly hinder ball flight but that's generally more than offset by the very small outfield.

Keep these trends in mind before setting your lineup (particularly important for weekly lock fantasy leagues where it's difficult to predict the weather in a few days).
