Adam Dunn's resurgent season continued Monday night in a gargantuan way.

RotoWire MLB Depth Chart Analysis

Via Fox Sports  |  August 14, 2012
Rather than discuss the merits of the White Sox's temporary carousel at designated hitter (A.J. Pierzynski and Dayan Viciedo should see the bulk of the time there with Adam Dunn subbing at first), I thought it might be more interesting/useful to take a more macro look at the rest of the season. More specifically, which parks have been the best and worst for hitters of both hands...
