Dodgers exec completes deal

-

Andrew Friedman completed one last deal as Dodgers camp came to a close Wednesday. The new team president capped a whirlwind offseason with the purchase of a $6.415million home in Pasadena.

Set behind a gated drive, along a cul-de-sac, the Cape Cod-inspired Traditiona­l takes in panoramic views of the San Gabriel Mountains, the Rose Bowl and surroundin­g Brookside Golf Course. Marked by a wide front porch, the 6,200square-foot home features a media room, a mahogany wood-paneled library and a wine cellar.

Other living spaces include large common areas, a chef ’s kitchen with a center island, six bedrooms and six bathrooms. The master suite has a sitting room with a fireplace, a large walk-in closet and a private balcony.

Outside, grounds of more than half an acre contain a covered loggia with a cobbleston­e fireplace, large expanses of grass and a pool and spa. A motor court sits at the entrance of the home.

Mark Ogden of Sotheby’s Internatio­nal Realty and Boyd Smith and Matt Littell of Podley Properties were the listing agents. Susan and Brad Mohr of Partners Trust Real Estate Brokerage & Acquisitio­ns represente­d Friedman in the sale, which took place outside the Multiple Listing Service.

Friedman, who joined the Dodgers front office October after a decade with the Tampa Bay Rays, previously sold a waterfront home in St. Petersburg, Fla., in November for the asking price of $2.35 million.

The 38-year-old will reportedly earn $35 million over the next five years as part of his contract with the Dodgers, making him the highest-paid front office executive in baseball.
