From the following Movie clip "Good Will Hunting". What does Fenway mean. Is it misspelling?
Thanks,
No, not a lick. When I look at a piano, I see a bunch of keys, three pedals and a box of wood. But beethoven, Mozart, they saw it. They could just play. I couldn't paint you a picture. I probably can’t hit the ball out of the Fenway. And I can’t play the piano

Fenway is just the name of a baseball park. It's home to the Boston Red Sox and it also happens to be the oldest major league ballpark. I think that it is a little easier to hit home-runs there than other ballparks so he's saying that if he can't hit one outta the park there then he can't do it at all.

It's not The Fenway, it's just Fenway. Fenway Park is in Boston. Home of the Red Sox. The expression comes from the fact that the outfield wall at Fenway is so far out, that it is almost impossible to hit a ball over it. Basically, it just means the same as "I'd have as much chance of hitting the million dollar lottery without a ticket!!"

He is talking about Fenway Park. He is saying he will never be a great baseball power hitter, able to hit a ball "out of the Fenway",

Well lets see they are talking about Fenway Park home to the Boston Red Sox. The stadium's left field wall has its own name "The Green Monster" it is relatively a short left field like 310-320ft but its called the Green Monster because its like (correct me if I'm wrong) a 35-40 ft tall wall so its harder to hit the ball out of the park. and right field is also a short distance, but center field is at least 400ft or longer.

Enough people have clued you into where Fenway Park is. In the context of the movie, he's explaining how some people are exceptionally gifted with special attributes. For Mozart and Beethoven, it was the piano. For him, it's math. He can't play piano, paint, play baseball like a pro, but he can look at math and just automatically get it.
