Lengthy profile — I particularly like this tidbit:
Augustus’ perspective is much different than the more than 300,000 baseball fans that entered the ballpark this year.
He sees the first dinner he had with Larry Lucchino in Boston, when the WooSox Chairman referred to his mentor, Edward Bennet Williams, a College of the Holy Cross alum.
Augustus pounced on the opportunity — using his connections at the school — to send Lucchino a rare yearbook photo of Williams. He signed it, “Dear Larry, Edward Williams would be so proud if you brought the team to Worcester.”
