Carlos Tosca just joined a pretty exclusive fraternity.
By my count, Tosca is just the sixth major-league manager since 1900 who
never played professional baseball.
根據我的統計,Tosca僅僅是1900年以來第六位從未打過職業棒球的大聯盟教練。
Without further ado, the first five:
Years Record
Ed Barrow 1903-1920 310-320
Hugo Bezdek 1917-1919 166-187
Judge Fuchs 1929 56- 98
Ted Turner 1977 0- 1
John Boles 1996-2001 205-241
Two of those managers deserve asterisks, because they hired themselves. Ted
Turner managed the Atlanta Braves for one game (after which commissioner
Bowie Kuhn ordered him to cease and desist, per MLB rules). Emil Fuchs
managed the Boston Braves for an entire season. The Braves finished with a
decent enough record
