Durham has 1600+ career AB in a better hitter's park. Garko is a RH batter with a 64 split(no idea how many AB but I'm guessing 1900) in a less forgiving park. And the numbers are practically identical. If Garko had 30 more total bases(or a few more walks) in his 2800+ AB, they are identical.
Yes I get the hitter's park thing, but still half of his games are away, and his Rh split is better by 10 points, contact by 3 (which increase avg right?), his eye is 9 points better (which should increase OBP) and his power better by 44 (!). And yet his vR splits are worse!
He's had 1642 at bats incidentally vs. right handers.
