The number I called Friday morning ended in a string of 2’s, and the man who answered the phone just happened to have a story about that, plus a few other stories after 37 years in the top executive’s suite of three Major League Baseball clubs.
“When I first came to the Red Sox, I had a choice of a few phone numbers, but I chose this one to remind me that we seemed perennially No. 2 to the Yankees,” Larry Lucchino said.
So there’s that.
Then there’s the story about Hillary Clinton, with whom Lucchino toiled after Yale Law on the Congressional inquiry that brought impeachment charges against Richard Nixon, who foiled all that by resigning.
