Dusty Baker, who managed the Cincinnati Reds from 2008 to 2013, was introduced by the San Francisco Giants on Monday as a special advisor to Giants CEO Larry Baer.
Baker managed the Giants from 1993 to 2002, when he won his only National League pennant as a manager.
In October, the Washington Nationals announced that Baker wouldn't return as manager after two seasons with the team.
Baker's postseason woes continued with the Nationals' loss to the Chicago Cubs in the National League Division Series.
Teams managed by Baker have lost 10 consecutive postseason close-out games - a streak including the Reds' NLDS collapse against the San Francisco Giants in 2012 - an MLB record.
