Cy Young Statue in Boston, Massachusetts
Former site of the Boston Red Sox former home, the Huntington Avenue Grounds, which is now occupied by Northeastern University, was the site of the first Fall Classic in 1903, when the then-Boston Americans defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates and brought the very first title to the city of Boston, and started one of the most famous championships in the world.
The campus has honored its legacy and historical significance with a home plate plaque and a statue of the legendary Cy Young in the pitcher mound reading a pitch against you in a moment frozen in time for America’s favorite pastime and is an often ignored landmark of one of the most iconic baseball cities in the country.
