Summary

[edit]
Description

Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox baseball club, celebrated its 100th anniversary in April 2012. To mark the occasion, I am taking a tour of the ballpark just a few weeks after the anniversary.

An overview of the field from the top deck, with batting practice nets set up as the evening game against the Baltimore Orioles nears.

The scoreboards on the Green Monster are Major League Baseball's last remaining manual scoreboards. They are operated by three men, who normally hide behind the scoreboard; one man updates the inning-by-inning score for the current game plus the run/hit/error count, a second man updates scores for other American League games, and a third man updates scores for the National League games. The first two men can work from behind the board, but the National League board doesn't have behind-board access, so the third man must come out to the field, during pitching change or other breaks, to update the scores from the field side.
