Theo Epstein helped to end baseball’s two longest curses. But when it comes to landing a jump off the top of his amplifier, the 43-year-old executive still has a little ways to go.
At the annual Hot Stove Cool Music concert at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston over the weekend (used as a fundraiser for a charity Epstein co-founded), the former Red Sox general manager leaped onstage to jam with Eddie Vedder. At the conclusion of one of the songs, Epstein—building to the finale—tried a standard guitarist move.
He hopped onto his amp and tried to jump off.
