Because the facility was built in a marshy area of the city known as ''The Fens.'' The ballpark, of course, is best known for the ''Green Monster'' in left field, a 37-foot high wall topped by a screen designed to protect windows from baseballs on Lansdowne Street. But the charm doesn’t end there. The right field foul pole is known as Pesky’s Pole because Johnny Pesky hit it numerous times for home runs. And the bullpen area in right-center field is known as Williamsburg, so named because it was constructed in 1940 to help Ted Williams hit home runs. It’s the mid-'50s here, and Williams is still tearing it up.
