FORT MYERS, Fla. - After managing the Boston Red Sox to two World Series championships in four seasons, Terry Francona was rewarded Sunday with a three-year contract extension that runs through 2011.
The deal includes club options for 2012 and 2013, which would give him a full decade as manager if the team exercises them.
Francona also received something else: a touching e-mail from general manager Theo Epstein as final details were being worked out Saturday night.
