The 'MLB'ers to win a championship as both a player and a manager' quiz
Success as a Major League Baseball player rarely translates to success as manager. Alan Trammell, Billy Herman, Ted Williams and Cookie Lavagetto are just a few great ballplayers who had poor managerial stints. In contrast, numerous great managers failed as players. Tony LaRussa, Sparky Anderson and Bobby Cox all had their cups of coffee. Walter Alston’s first major league at bat for the 1936 Cardinals was his last (he struck out). Sparky Anderson was given a full time job at second base with the Phillies 1959, but hit only .218 and lost his roster spot after the Phils finished 23 games behind Walter Alston’s World Champion Dodgers. Then there’s the rare case where an individual is as successful as manager as he was a player. Excluding several player-manager champs, this quiz presents examples of MLB who won World Titles during their playing days and tasted victory again as a manager. Can you name all 13?
