Hotels for Boston Red Sox vs. Chicago White Sox

A Monday night in late May means baseball in short sleeves, with the sun only just dropping below the rooftops by first pitch. Interleague games against a team from the other side of the country carry a slightly different buzz than the usual divisional grind, drawing in curious fans who don't get many chances to see this particular matchup.

Expect the usual rhythms of a weeknight game: a lighter crowd filtering in after work, organ music between innings, and the crack of the bat carrying clearly through the old grandstands.

The oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball, Fenway Park is a beloved Boston institution, home to the Red Sox and its famous 'Green Monster' wall, and a characterful host of summer concerts. The surrounding Kenmore and Fenway area buzzes with students, bars and restaurants, with the rest of compact Boston easily walkable.

The MBTA Green Line stops right by the park. Booking a room in Boston lets you soak up the pre-game atmosphere on foot and ride the T back with ease afterwards.
