Fenway Park Profile

Boston Red Sox fans baseball betting on their team, have come to love watching games at Fenway Park in the heart of Boston ever since the team moved in 1912. As many MLB betting enthusiasts know, Fenway Park is the oldest ballpark currently in use and the oldest sports stadium in the entire United States.

The baseball betting news is abuzz with the fact that Fenway Park is the last of the ballparks used from the original MLB era. Since it is the oldest ballpark, it has been nicknamed “America’s most beloved ballpark”. Fenway Park is located in the Fenway – Kenmore neighborhood in Boston Mass. The location of the stadium has factored significantly in the renovations to the park to keep it up to date. There are many at the present version of Fenway that weren’t envisioned initially.

For instance, the “Green Monster” wall in left field is a favorite target for right handed hitters. In 1912, the Green Monster was made of wood. However in 1934, when the legendary scoreboard was put in place in the left field, the Green Monster was covered in tin and concreter and painted green, hence the nickname.

As well, next to Wrigley Field in Chicago, Fenway Park is the only ballpark to have a manual scoreboard. Throughout the rest of the league, the scoreboards are digital and controlled by the stadium announcer. Yet in a nostalgic moment, the Fenway ownership, has never altered the dynamic of the scoreboard and has a person manually change the numbers.

Another unique feature of Fenway Park is the triangle located in centre field. The walls in that specific area form a triangle with the longest side being 420 feet. This confuses many fans new to Fenway as most believe that the power alley is in left field in a smaller corner between center and the Green Monster.
