Just shy of its 100th birthday, Fenway Park is getting a little work done.

According to The Boston Globe, "In a major improvement project underway this off-season, workers have removed a swath of about 10,000 seats from the lower portion of the seating area, dugout to dugout, so that the concrete underneath can be repaired and waterproofed."

After that's complete, the Field and Loge Box sections will get new seats, and more seats will be added to the stadium overall. Fenway has one of the smallest seating capacities in the league.

This upgrade could be the last for a while since Larry Lucchino, president and CEO of the Red Sox, believes the stadium could still stay up to par for another 40 years.

In a news conference this morning, Governor Deval Patrick announced that some state workers will be laid off as a result of necessary budget cuts, and average residents will begin to feel the weight of the state's financial troubles.

According to the Boston Globe, Patrick said, "People will feel this in their services. This is not about cutting so-called fat. This is going to cut muscle, because the scale of the issue requires that."

The specifics of the "hundreds of millions of dollars" in cuts will not be made public until tomorrow, but currently, there are no plans to cut local funding to cities and towns.

Mainly because Patrick doesn't have the authority to do so ... yet.
