Dave, The Baseball Almanac (http://baseball-almanac.com/art_hr.shtml)
contains an in-depth piece entitled Long Distance Home Runs by W.J. Jenkinson
that addresses this. All major league stadia use a computer program provided by
IBM. I think the distance that is calculated is the range the projectile would
achieve if there were no stadium in the way.
