==Features== The left-field fence is {{convert|315|ft|m}} from home plate, the center-field fence is {{convert|400|ft|m}}, and the right-field fence is {{convert|330|ft|m}} away. The left-field wall, dubbed the Maine Monster, is 160 feet long and made of wood. Like the [[Green Monster]] in [[Fenway Park]], it is {{Convert|37|ft}} high, and green. There is a {{Convert|12|ft|adj=on}} screen above the wall to catch home run balls. Seats cannot be added to the Maine Monster because the [[Union Station (Portland, Maine)|Union Branch]] railroad runs immediately behind it.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Parkside to the Portland Transportation Center Pathways Projects |url=https://portland.civilspace.io/en/projects/parkside-to-the-portland-transportation-center-pathways-projects |access-date=2024-05-10 |website=portland.civilspace.io |publisher=City of Portland |language=en}}</ref> It was built after the Portland Sea Dogs announced their affiliation with the Boston Red Sox in 2002, to help train future Red Sox left fielders for the Green Monster and to add character to the ballpark. Construction started on October 28, 2002. The name, Maine Monster, was chosen through a fan contest.{{Cn|date=May 2025}}
