Testosterone does have affects on the brain related to spatial ability.

No wonder women have no depth perception.

Maybe, but does this mean women don't have home field advantage? I think there's a more social explanation.
  1. Travel. The visitors have just gotten off an airplane and are going to be more tired on average.
  2. Fan support. More people are going to be cheering for the home team than the visitors.
  3. Stadium size. Home field advantage is more pronounced in basketball and hockey. I think this is due to the smaller stadium size. It's relatively easy to fill a basketball court with noise. It's much harder to fill a baseball stadium with noise.
Anyway, that's my opinion.
