Fenway Park, Boston

We took a Fenway Park tour on the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park, on our last day in Boston. Fenway Park is a baseball park in Boston, Massachusetts, located at 4 Yawkey Way near Kenmore Square. It has been the home of the Boston Red Sox Major League Baseball team since it opened in 1912 and it is the oldest ballpark in MLB.

 

Because of its age and constrained location in Boston's dense Fenway–Kenmore neighborhood, the park has been renovated or expanded many times, resulting in unique, quirky features including "The Triangle", "Pesky's Pole", and most notably the famous Green Monster in left field. It is the fourth smallest among MLB ballparks by seating capacity, second smallest by total capacity, and one of seven that cannot accommodate at least 40,000 spectators.

Fenway has hosted ten World Series, first the 1912 World Series in its inaugural season and most recently the 2013 World Series.
