Scenario:Compare teams "2nd half of season late inning (7th inning on) wOBA improvement over their 1st half of the season in the late innings when playing at home". How much better (or worse) did each team do during the time frames?
How to read these ZScores: Blue = 1st half of the season at Home. Orange = 1st half of the season on the road. Green: 2nd half of the season at Home. Red = 2nd half of the season on the road.
So what can you can infer from below (and apply to other teams) is "if the green bar is taller than the blue bar, then the team improved at home in late inning OBP. Otherwise, they declined in the 2nd half. If the red bar is > orange bar, then they improved on the road in the late inning OBP in the 2nd half. Otherwise they declined".
The widest gap between green and blue is the winner. In the case of the Cardinals, you can say their home record (green over blue) was astonishing. As for their road record, it's good (red over orange) but but as dramatic as their home record
The figures based on this time frame (2004-2019)
If analyzing this, it's worth noting that the Mile High climate may cause the Colorado spike as that stadium has (as others have said) influenced offensive numbers. For the other stadiums, it's not the case. Also worth noting, the Yankees and Red Sox tend to drop in the 2nd half whereas the Cardinals, Rockies and Pirates spiked upwards in the 2nd half.
