Fenway Park

Fenway Park home of the Boston Red Sox is known for its odd quirks. One of the most iconic is the Green Monster a 37-foot high wall in left field But that’s not the only thing that makes Fenway unique. The park also has the deepest center field in Major League Baseball and its right field is just 302 feet from home plate

But perhaps the most unusual feature of Fenway Park is the Pesky Pole. Named for longtime Red Sox player Johnny Pesky, the pole is just a few feet from fair territory in right field, and it’s only 302 feet from home plate As a result, it’s one of the shortest distances to hit a home run in all of baseball.

Red Sox

In baseball, a hit by pitch (HBP) is defined as “when a batter is struck by a pitched ball and the umpire rules that the batter is not out and that the ball is in play.” A hit by pitch can occur when a pitcher deliberately tries to hit a batter with a thrown ball, when a wild pitch gets away from the catcher and hits the batter, or when a batted ball hits the pitcher on the rebound.

In Major League Baseball (MLB), HBPs are recorded as part of a pitcher’s statistics; at the end of each season, the pitcher who has recorded the most HBPs is given the Dizzy Trout Award. Fenway Park home of the Boston Red Sox has been called “the HBP capital of baseball” because of its close proximity to home plate and high number of HBPs.

On May 1, 2019, Sox pitcher Chris Sale threw a 93 mph fastball that hit Yankees DH Giancarlo Stanton in his left elbow. Stanton was not injured on the play, but both benches emptied and there was a brief scuffle between Sale and Yankees catcher Austin Romine.
