Fenway Park was only a few months old when it hosted the 1912 World Series, so a picture of the grounds being readied for that event shows a ballpark still new to the city. The Boston Red Sox faced the New York Giants that October in a closely fought Series that included a Game 2 tie, called for darkness after 11 innings. Images like this one capture the park during its first major postseason, when Boston was just beginning to build the traditions that would make Fenway famous.
