Former Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria ripped into the team’s former CEO Derek Jeter in his new book, “From the Front Row: Reflections of a Major League Baseball Owner and Modern Art Dealer.”
Loria blasted Jeter for his tenure as the team’s CEO from 2017 to ‘22, during which the 82-year-old alleges Jeter “destroyed the ballpark.”
In a phone conversation with the Miami Herald, Loria expressed his disappointment with the Hall of Fame shortstop’s decision to remove the team’s unique home run sculpture from behind the center field wall at LoanDepot Park and relocate it to an outdoor plaza nearby the stadium.
