The Green Monster is a popular nickname for the 37-foot-2-inch-high (11.33 m) left field wall at Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball. The wall is 310 feet (94 m) from home plate and is a popular target for right-handed hitters. [1]
From 1912 to 1933, there was a 10-foot (3.0 m) high incline in front of the then 25-foot (7.6 m)-high left field wall at Fenway Park, extending from the left-field foul pole to the center field flag pole (and thus under "The Triangle" of today). As a result, a left fielder had to play part of the territory running uphill (and back down).
His name is derived from the Green Monster, the nickname of the 37-foot 2-inch wall in left field at Fenway Park. Wally debuted on April 13, 1997. [1] Although he was an immediate success with children, he was not as well-received by older fans.
The Citgo sign is known nationally for appearing above the Green Monster during televised games of the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The sign has been nicknamed "See It Go," especially when a home run is hit during a game. [4] This visibility has led to the installation of replica signs.
The Teammates: A Portrait of a Friendship is a bronze sculpture in Boston, Massachusetts which stands outside Fenway Park's Gate 5, at the corner of Ipswich street and Van Ness Street. The sculpture depicts Boston Red Sox teammates (from left to right): Bobby Doerr , Dom DiMaggio , Johnny Pesky , and Ted Williams .
The right field wall came to be known as the Baker Wall after William Baker, who ran the club from 1913 until his death in 1930. The right field wall and fence in its final form was 60 feet (18 m) high. By comparison, Fenway Park's left field wall, the Green Monster, is 37 feet (11 m) high, and 310 feet (94 m) away.
