    Buck Showalter

    May 28, 1998
    Buck Showalter has Barry Bonds walked intentionally with a two-run lead with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. The move works!

    YANKEE BASEBALL!!!

    ON THIS DATE IN 1998;

    "Clinging to an 8-6 lead with two outs in the ninth, Arizona intentionally walks San Francisco's Barry Bonds with the bases loaded -- the first documented incident of it's kind since 1944. Brent Mayne then lines out to end the game."

    Buck was a great manager and an even better analyst. I hope he gets the job with the Mets after Valentine gets fired.

    I really did like him too-but I heard he was a real prick with the guys.

    yeah I heard that too, but the manager is there to make a team win, not be popular. The players are suppose to respect him, not like him.

    I believe he's a good manager, but wound too tight...

    I just don't like the way he uses his pitchers, especially relievers.

    However, I do believe he deserves a major league managing job.
