Updike, John. “Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu.”

October 22, 1960

New Yorker. In the essay on Ted Williams’ last game, Updike describes Fenway Park. “Everything is painted green and seems in curiously sharp focus, like the inside of an old-fashioned peeping-type Easter egg,” he writes. Updike only attended the September 28, 1960 game after he attempted to visit his Beacon Hill mistress but found that she was not home.
