Todays The Advocate of Stamford/Norwalk spotlightҒs Westports Jeff White and his lifelong love of baseball.
White has been president of Westport Little League baseball for 22 years and has overseen expansion of the townҒs baseball fields from 12 to 20, including one named for his father on Compo Road North.
But most of the baseball world knows him for his 11-year stint as Major League Baseballs chief financial officer and his present position Җ through his Fare Play Inc.,—as an advisor to the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
It has been a labor of love, immersing him at both the big-time and grass-roots levels. Through it all, White has maintained the boyish enthusiasm that has linked his aspirations to their realizations, the newspaper said.
“I’ve been pretty lucky,” White said. “I get the best of both worlds. Part of me is that kid all over again.”
