John Carpino is retiring as president of the Los Angeles Angels, the team announced Friday, ending a 23-year run spent mostly as a liaison to owner Arte Moreno.

Molly Jolly, a longtime Angels executive who has been serving as senior vice president of finance and administration, will replace Carpino as president beginning April 6, with Carpino expected to help with the transition. At 16 years, Carpino's tenure as president was the longest in the franchise's 65-year history.
