The Rangers announced they are hiring veteran Bruce Bochy as the team’s next manager on a three-year deal.
“As we went through the interview process, Bruce’s passion and excitement about returning to the dugout was very evident,” general manager Chris Young said in a statement. “It became clear he was the ideal individual to lead our club as we continue to build a championship culture here in Arlington.”
Bochy spent 25 years previously managing the Padres and Giants, resulting in four combined World Series appearances and three World Series titles with San Francisco.
