Larry Lucchino dies at 78; former Boston Red Sox executive helped lead retro ballpark revolution

Larry Lucchino was one of the most accomplished executives that our industry has ever had, baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said.
Camden Yards became a trend-setter, and Lucchino himself would follow up with a new ballpark for the San Diego Padres, whom he served as president and CEO.
We didn't know that we were going to ignite a revolution in ballpark architecture, Lucchino told The Associated Press in 2021 as the WooSox prepared to open their new home, Polar Park.
