Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group have agreed a deal to sell one of the sports teams in their portfolio.
The Boston-based ownership group, which includes the Reds, baseball team Boston Red Sox, the Pittsburgh Penguins ice hockey franchise and NASCAR team RFK Racing, among others, has reached an agreement to sell the Salem Red Sox, a minor league -daughter of her MLB team in Boston, according to the Boston Globe.
The Salem team, a Class A affiliate competing in the Carolina League, is scheduled to be acquired by Diamond Baseball Holdings, which has been under FSG control since 2007. Salem will remain a connected team of the Boston Red Sox despite new ownership.

“For 16 years, Allen (Lawrence, General Manager of Salem) and the entire team at Salem have been incredible partners who have made the entry point into the Red Sox minor league system a welcoming and standard-setting entry point for our culture,” said Red Sox President and one of FSG’s oldest partners, Sam Kennedy, said in a press release.
“Our connection with Allen and the entire player development team at Salem will remain intact, and I know that with DBH leaders like Pat Battle and Peter Freund at the helm, the organization is in good hands.
“What they are doing to improve the minor leagues through investment and technology will greatly benefit Salem and I have no doubt they will continue to build on what was built in Salem under Allen’s competent guidance.”
