I don't think there is anymore. Fenway opened in 1912. The Boston baseball
team (not know as the Red Sox before 1912) played at the old Huntington Ave
Grounds on what I believe is now Northeastern University prior to 1912.

Wrigley in Chicago is the only other stadium that I think is close in age to
Fenway.

(Tiger Stadium in Detroit was also buit in 1912 until they built Comerica(?)
Park in the late 90's)
