Longtime Cleveland Guardians owner Larry Dolan has died at age 94, the team announced Monday.
The Dolan family is the longest-tenured owner in franchise history, and its patriarch is a lifelong Clevelander who influenced his community both on and off the field over the years.
“We are saddened by the loss of our Dad, but lucky to have him as part of our lives as long as we did,” Dolan’s son, chair and CEO Paul Dolan, said in a statement. “He was a loving husband, father and grandfather who was passionate about his family, work, our community and his love of our local sports teams, including owning the Cleveland Guardians.”
Paul Dolan ultimately took over as the primary owner of the franchise in 2013, eventually overseeing the team’s name change to Guardians in 2021.
