Fenway Park - if you only ever visit one baseball stadium - choose Fenway

Not sure Americans can teach us much about sport, but when it comes to rebuilding a stadium but keeping it's original feel or how to run a stadium tour- then Fenway Park in Boston, ticks all the boxes. Not to say Americans always get it right as a visit to the Yankee Stadium will leave you less impressed.


Here are a few pictures from a recent visit to Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.

Great day at the 'Ball Park'

Saturday 24 June 2023, Chicago Cubs 9 St Louis Cardinals 1 - National League, Central, London Stadium

Not cheap - but well worth the money - not USA coming to the UK however an American Sport given a British twist. Massive crowd - probably the highest crowd Baseball will see in the regular season this year.

Slow start then the Cubs scored at regular intervals, for what turned out to be an easy win.

The souvenir and American food shops did well as did the British bars!
