PHILADELPHIA — They are friends – business partners really – who share the same passion and goals, but they can't sit together.
One looks like a GQ model, often wearing a sports jacket, his hair combed perfectly, always looking relaxed and composed. The other dresses like he could be a stadium worker, constantly in motion, pacing by the batting cage, even picking up baseballs after batting practice as if he’s trying to justify a minimum wage salary.
One is comfortably rich. The other generationally wealthy.
Together, John Middleton and Dave Dombrowski are baseball’s incomparable power couple, striving to create a legacy that will forever be remembered in Philadelphia Phillies’ history.
Middleton, 70, is the managing partner who owns the Phillies.
