The MBTA is stacking its lineup Tuesday afternoon to help baseball fans root for the home team at opening day at Fenway Park.

According to a release from the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority:

*There will be extra service on the Green Line before and after the game.

*To expedite the fare-purchasing process for customers, the T has more than doubled the number of CharlieCard Machines at Riverside Station.

*Free bus shuttle service between Ruggles Station and Fenway Park (begins 90 minutes before first pitch, and will continue for 30 minutes after the last out).

*Additional MBTA Customer Service Agents will be available to assist transit-users.

*There are five (5) CharlieCard Machines inside Fenway Park

*Sox fans are strongly encouraged to purchase round-trip fares on their way into the game ... to avoid long lines when heading back home.
