  • Seating capacity: 36,108
  • Field surface: Grass
  • Year opened: 1912
  • Holding the title as Major League Baseball's oldest active ballpark, taking in a game at Fenway is a rite of passage for any baseball nut. From the legendary Green Monster to the Fisk Foul Pole, Fenway is overflowing with nostalgia. Don't forget to take notice of the lone red seat in the right field bleachers, which represents the spot where Ted Williams' mammoth home run landed during a June 9, 1946, game against the Detroit Tigers. The bomb was officially measured at 502 feet—the longest measurable home run ever hit inside Fenway Park.

    Fast Fact: The Red Sox contemplated building a new Fenway Park in the late '90s, but fans (and the city of Boston) rallied to shoot down the idea, thus preserving their beloved ballpark.
