Larry Cancro took his break the same way every day. During that 1989 season, the longtime Red Sox employee stood by Section 28, near the ramp leading to the third base deck at Fenway Park, as he watched Wade Boggs take what felt like 300 practice grounders at third base.
But on this particular day, something else caught his eye. He noticed a woman with a yellow legal pad, craning her neck to look up at the rafters before scribbling something down. Cancro felt he needed to investigate.
“Excuse me, can I help you?” Cancro asked.
