NY Times Rumored to Sell The Boston Globe to John Henry, Boston Red Sox Owner [Update]

All the speculation about who will be the new owner of the Boston Globe might have just ended, via a baseball journalist’s digging. Peter Gammons is reporting that the New York Times is selling the paper to John Henry, the owner of the Boston Red Sox.
