The old adage that the only sure things in life are death and taxes also has a similar one that applies to baseball or should I just say the Boston Red Sox. The only sure thing is an increase in seating and (surprise) and an increase in ticket prices at Fenway Park.
The latest expansion, as noted by The Boston Herald’s Michael Silverman, is the addition of 124 new seats to bring the listed capacity of Fenway Park to 38,073. Additional seats are certainly not a new concept and the team has constantly squeezed in seats wherever the potential for an open space or existing space to be expanded is spotted.
