Red Sox: No "big kaboom"
More on Boston Red Sox owner John Henry's statements yesterday on renovating Fenway Park: team architect Janet Marie Smith says the team is looking at ways to fit a small number of new seats, perhaps 3,500, into various parts of the park: "I personally don't feel a big kaboom happening," she said. Her boss concurred, saying of the 92-year-old ballpark (current capacity: a smidge over 36,000): "I'm not in favor of going above 40,000 [seats]." Henry also said he would not be seeking any public money for the renovations.
