Harrington, chief executive officer, be¬ gan his 28th season as a member of Red Sox management in 2000, having joined the organiza¬ tion in 1973. In 1981, Mr. Harrington became a trustee of the Jean R. Yawkey Trust, which was a general partner of the Red Sox organization. The Jean R. Yawkey Trust then became the majority general partner of the Red Sox in 1987. Over the 13 years since 1987 when the Trust became the majority general partner, the team has appeared in post-season play five times, exceeded only by the Atlanta Braves, in all of Major League Baseball. Three of those post¬ season appearances have been within the past five years. Since 1976, when the Jean R. Yawkey ownership commenced, the Red Sox have produced numerous competitive teams, all with a cumulative record of 2,005 wins and 1,759 losses, the second-best record in all of Major League Baseball entering 2000. During Mr. Harrington's 28-year involvement, the Red Sox have signifi¬ cantly expanded and renovated Fenway Park with new grandstand roof¬ ing, seating, private suites, club seats, left-field wall, an electronic scoreboard, escalators, elevators and a parking garage as well as renovated restrooms, concession stands and front offices. In addition, the team moved its spring training headquarters in 1993 to a new state-of-the- art facility in Fort Myers, Florida. Since 1986 Mr. Harrington has been very active in Major League Baseball. Presently, he is the vice-chairman of the Blue Ribbon Task Force for analyzing baseball's economic structure. He currently serves on MLB's prestigious Executive Council and is the chairman of the Realignment Committee. In 1995, the Realignment Committee proposed and imple¬ mented significant changes to the M.L. competitive structure, by the realignment of both leagues into three divisions with an expanded post¬ season playoff system and the participation of wild-card teams. In addition, the committee proposed and implemented a significant revision to the championship schedule of both leagues with the introduction of interleague games in 1997. Mr. Harrington also was the chairman of the Expansion Committee which designated the last two expansion teams, co-chairman of the Labor Policy Committee and a member of the Revenue Sharing Committee and Strategic Planning Committee. In addition to his sports interests, Mr. Harrington is a Certified Public Accountant and member of the American Institute of CPAs. Prior to entering baseball in 1970 as the controller at the American League of Professional Baseball, he was an assistant professor at the Graduate School of Management at Boston College. He earned his Bachelors degree from Boston College in 1957 and his Masters in 1966. Upon graduation, Mr. Harrrington served three years as a commissioned naval officer traveling extensively throughout the world on a destroyer. Currently he is a director of Hospitality Properties Trust and Senior Housing Trust, both NYSE Real Estate Investment Trusts. He is a former director of the New England Sports Network, Shawmut Bank NA and Fleet Bank NA. He is affiliated with various charities and non-profit institutions serving as a director of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY and the Baseball Assistance Team. He is also a trustee of Boston College, the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, the National Little League Foundation, the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum, the Boston Public Library Founda¬ tion, the Boston Catholic Charitable Bureau and the Archdiocese of Boston-Inner City Scholarship Foundation. Mr. Harrington received honorary doctorate degrees from Suffolk Uni¬ versity and Emmanuel College. He is an honorary member of the Boston College Hall of Fame and the Boston Park League Baseball Hall of Fame. Born in the Jamaica Plain section of Boston, he currently resides in Westwood, MA with his wife, Maureen. They have three married children, Debra McNulty, Brian and Sean, along with six grandchildren. 8
