Chapman's Game-Saving Play 😱

Red Sox, Make-A-Wish Foundation Build Fenway Park Replica in Child's Backyard

Andrew GouldApr 8, 2017

The Boston Red Sox teamed with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to fulfill a child's dream of having a baseball field in his backyard.

Born with scoliosis, Thomas Hastings was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy after his first birthday. Throughout his hardships, he has maintained a love for baseball and the Red Sox.

After he requested a ballpark in his backyard as his wish, the Red Sox jumped on board. With help from the team's grounds crew and local volunteers, they constructed a scaled-down version of Fenway Park.

From the iconic Green Monster to the triangle in center field, Hastings' "Fantasy Fenway" looks like the real thing. The construction team also made sure to make the field flat and wheelchair accessible.

"I can just wake up to it," Hastings said in the video above, produced by Make-A-Wish Connecticut. "I don't have to think, 'Is that supposed to be Fenway Park?' I know it's Fenway Park."
