Heard an interview with an Omaha sports writer about the new park. The architects who designed it wanted the fans to have a view of the Omaha skyline, so they reversed the direction of the field. That aligns it so that the prevailing win in the summer blows in from left and center field.

Rosenblatt pointed the opposite direction, so the prevailing wind blew out towards left and center. Apparently, the wind blows a lot in Nebraska in the summer, so it makes the new stadium play much bigger.
