Compare that to Fenway Park, where we fill the scoreboard with statistics, not cartoons,

First off, I'm a bit surprised no one has popped off at this guy for dissing your own kind....
As for this quote above......
That's because anyone who's been to Fenway knows they only have one videoboard, which they have to leave open for live game feed and replays. The other half of the videoboard is made to support numerics.....i.e. stats. And when the little time there is permits between pitches, they show a mug shot of the batter and then quickly flip back to the live game feed. This obviously leaves no time or space at all for "cartoons."
So what's this asshole getting at with this point?
Maybe the fact that Yankee Stadium is light-years ahead in technology then Fenway will ever be.
Do I smell jealousy on the part of this lame minor league beat writer?
The lone videoboard at Fenway....half of it taken up by advertisements.
And in the outfield......The four videoboards of Yankee Stadium. Not shown.....the new LED Ribbon Boards along the facade of first and third base sides of the park.
So in essence. Fenway is a craphole and Boston beat writers continue to illustrate to the world just how brainless the people of New England can be.....nothing new there.
And to any of you who say "Nay" simply because of the belief that Fenway is a so-called classic beauty because of its age.....shut it up and look at Wrigley Field. Now that's a classic beauty that actually looks like a ballpark.
