Sullivan was born in Quincy, Massachusetts. He is the son of former Red Sox player and general manager Haywood Sullivan. He played college baseball for the University of Florida. In 1977, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Orleans Cardinals of the Cape Cod Baseball League, and returned to the league in 1978 to play for the Chatham A's.[1] Sullivan was selected by his father for the Red Sox in the second round of the 1979 MLB Draft.
