At elevation, Greater Nevada Field has a very deep field, at its shallowest point and at its deepest point. Therefore, home runs are less likely to occur, and line drive triples are more likely. The elevation of the natural grass playing field is approximately above sea level and is aligned northeast by north. Trent Oeltjen hit the park's first triple on opening night, but the first home run came the following night. Josh Whitesell hit it in the bottom of the first inning, and went on to hit the park's first grand slam in the bottom of the 7th inning. Due to the high elevation and generally dry climate, prior to the 2014 season a humidor similar to the one installed at Coors Field in Denver was built to try and reduce the hitter's advantage.
