Larry Lucchino may have stepped down as the president and CEO of the Red Sox, but he hasn’t abandoned one of his favorite pastimes – tweaking the Yankees.
The man who once called the Yanks the “Evil Empire” lobbed a playful zinger at the Yanks Friday using a minor-league press release as the vehicle.
"Rob Crain brings a breadth of minor league experience from several clubs across the country, including, of course, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, the Triple-A affiliate of a nearby American League team,” Lucchino said in a Pawtucket Red Sox release, referring to a former employee of the Yanks’ top farm club.
