He's intense. In person, he's like a general or military leader...always in charge.
But he's gone through cancer, a crazy minor league career in which he fought just to get one hit in the big leagues off Dan Petry (Dish)...he's just really standup and admirable.
I knew back in 1995 he was going to be a big league manager someday, surprised it took him 20 years (and it required the revolution of "pitch frame" and "infield shifting" with the Pirates/Hurdle to get some attention and job interviews.)
His favorite restaurant is Hooters in Augusta, lol. But a great family man...cool wife, has got it all.
How do you know so much about him?
