Legends & Flashbacks – Ted Williams Collection

Section 42, Row 37, Seat 21 at Fenway Park is marked by a solitary red seat that represents the furthest hit home run, ever, at “The Green Monster.” Estimated to have traveled 502 feet, with some arguing it may have traveled even further, this feat was accomplished by a player many consider one of the greatest hitters in baseball history and the last player to hit over .400 in a single season – Ted Williams. This week, June 9th, marks the 79th anniversary of this historic hit and MLB The Show 25 is proud to feature the Ted Williams Collection available in Legends & Flashbacks Collections.
