Grand Slam In Chestnut Hill! The Estate Of Larry Lucchino! Virtual Event Starts 4/3 At 10Am! #Happyhunting

The "Grand Slam" in Chestnut Hill! Step up to the plate—hey batter, batter! ⚾ Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime estate sale honoring the legacy of Larry Lucchino (1945–2024). A transformative executive who brought four World Series titles to Boston, Lucchino’s resume is unmatched: he is the only person in sports history to hold World Series rings, a Super Bowl ring, and a Final Four watch. The Man Who Saved Fenway Upon arriving in 2002, Lucchino and the Boston Red Sox ownership group made the historic decision to preserve rather than demolish the iconic 1912 structure. Lucchino oversaw a 10-year, $285 million renovation that added the famous Green Monster Seats, modernized the venue, and anchored the team’s success. He proudly celebrated the park's 100th anniversary in 2012, marking a century of baseball at the "Olde Towne Team's" home. Beyond the front office, Lucchino was a passionate philanthropist, a "driven" leader, and a dedicated chairman of the Jimmy Fund. Now, we invite you to own a piece of this championship history, with proceeds benefiting the Lucchino Family Charitable Foundation. Welcome to the Hunt!

The Heavy Hitter: The Marquis Grissom Petco Park Opener Bat ⚾ This isn't just memorabilia; it’s a piece of the architecture of the game. Dated April 8, 2004, this bat comes directly from Larry Lucchino, the driving force behind the design and financing of Petco Park.
