It is not where the Red Sox made their debut back in 1901. It is not even in the same place it used to be back in 1926 that the first fire that destroyed part of the left-field foul line stands that have not been replaced. What should have been a sight to see him burn for 4 hours with a standard 5-alarms and the recent construction going to look into the flames.
But a year later, in 1934, the new Fenway Park opened and the Red Sox were defeated 6-5 in 11 innings against the Washington Senators. That same year, the wall of timber in the left field and was removed two years later, in 1936, a sign of the times, technology has been reported by the 23-foot screen was made just above the wall in left field.
Do you know your history about the place where the Red Sox have played in the house? Returning to the origin, until 1901 when the Huntington Avenue grounds. The official date was May 8, 1901, with a capacity that was slightly less than 12,000, Red Sox big names like Cy Young performance reaches a large number of players could only dream of throwing the first perfect game time in 1904. Proof of point came in 1993 when a statue of Cy was placed where the plate had been. With center field over 650 meters, there was a miracle?
Even with credit for hosting the first AL NL World Series in 1903 under the belt, it was not enough to keep the Huntington Grounds to see their last game in October 1911. Thus, in 1912, came the Red Sox Fenway Park. The same year, Hugh Bradley was the last home race.
With an initial capacity of 35,000 for the two fires in 1946, Sky View seats will be added to the park. Later only one, in line with changes that would later become common standards, the Red Sox played their game one night and vanquished? You guessed it, the White Sox, 5-3.
Perhaps there is a tacit synergy between the Red Sox and Fenway Park as all years after year history and the various opponents of Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz still of Babe Ruth to the hill on the left clearly against the No-Hitters from teams like the Washington Senators to the Baltimore Orioles.
It is true that no one has equaled Cy perfect game, but with a long list of accomplishments few miles who populated a good list of players the Red Sox who hit for the cycle through the history of this team has no place here include Heads hung.
It does not take a genius to see that, year after year, the Red Sox home World Series, AL Division Series and AL Championship Series against all, the New York Giants in 1912 for the Colorado Rockies in 2007 .
