Gardner’s coverage area
According to Mark and/or BIS, this is how much territory Gardner and the average LF covers on balls in the air for 3-4 seconds. Trying to do some quick math, that gives me a coverage area of about 100 feet x 100 feet for the average LF, and 125 x 125 for Gardner. That sounds about right.
UPDATE: The radius as I did the calculation was 58 feet for the average fielder and 70 feet for Gardner. That’s about 20% more distance for Gardner in the same amount of time. Gardner being 20% faster than the average LF would seem to be correct. You can create a more complex model of course, and also that Gardner might take a more direct route, etc.
