The Twins have hired Larry DiVito to be head groundskeeper at Target Field, the team announced today. It’s the team’s first head groundskeeper hire since 1961, their first year at Metropolitan Stadium.

Over the past 14 years, DiVito has worked as head groundskeeper for the Washington Nationals, grounds crew supervisor for the Los Angeles Dodgers and and head groundskeeper for the Pawtucket Red Sox.
