		A side effect of this is to increase the prevalence of doubles, since this is the most common result when the ball is hit off the wall (although some Red Sox leftfielders have become adept at fielding caroms off the wall to throw runners out at second base or hold the batter to a single).
		Compared with other current major league parks, the wall is fairly shallow, at 310 feet from the plate at the left-field foul line, allowing a high but short fly ball to clear the wall for a home run.
		During the Red Sox pennant race in 1975, an overhead photograph of Fenway Park was shown to a man who had analyzed reconnaissance photos in preparation for bombing missions in World War II.
