Nature of home run fence at Boston's old Huntington Avenue Grounds   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #337 of 406 |

Would anyone know if the old Huntington Avenue Grounds in Boston had a
wooden home run fence or a rope "fence" when the Red Sox played there,
particularly during the 1908 season? I've looked at several online
sources, run a search through the SABR-L list, and perused some photos,
and while I've found info on the odd dimensions of the field, I've not
been able to determine with any certainty if the games were played with
some kind of home run fence (whether wooden or rope) in front of the
outfield bleachers. Thanks for any tips on this.
