Dodger Stadium in 1962. The error was corrected the following season.
Glenn Brimmer, and it was a foul ball

90 feetsource: I read this in an online article by the Pocono Record (URL below)Yankees are coming home Distance from the plate to the backstop: 52 feet, four inches, which us about 20 feet less than the old Yankee Stadium. Foul poles: 90 feet highwww.poconorecord.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090416/SPORTS/904160338
Both of the foul poles are usually a bright yellow, however, a few ballparks have orange foul poles
No, a fair ball has never been hit of Yankee Stadium. Mickey Mantle came the closest twice, hit right roof shots that hit the facade (1956 and 1963) coming within a few feet of leaving the stadium. Also, Josh Gibons and Jimmy Fox and Barry Bonds hit long shots that stayed in the stadium. Hack Greenburg hit a ball out of Yankee Stadium but it was declared just foul.
The center of home plate will be where the two foul poles meet at a right (90 degree) angle

No baseball has officialy been hit out of New Busch Stadium which opened in 2006. At least not during a regular Major League Game. Here is al little bit of history. Back in 1986 a player by the name of Mike Laga hit the only baseball ever to be hit out of Old Busch Stadium (1966-2005). Although it was a foul ball it actually left the stadium and landed in a flower bed just outside the first base side of the stadium. The Cardinals were playing the Mets that night and the fans gave Laga ( much to his embarresment) a standing ovation. How is that for a baseball town.
the right field wall at fenway park is tricky...which is why most newcomers have a hard time playing that position...at the deepest part - it's 380 feet from home plate and along the line it measures 302 feet - I'm pretty sure that's up to pesky's pole - which allows for the short home run
