Catch As Catch Can Two

Catch As Catch Can

Two more managers were named and guess what? They, too, are former backup cathcers: Ned Yost and Ken Macha.

Yost, whose real first name is Edgar (!), also got the job as part of the "Hey, remember him?" school of manager casting. He played for the Brewers back when they had that "M-b" glove logo on their hats that were probably designed by the foppishly fashion-conscious Bud Selig.

Macha was a utility player for Pirates, Expos, and Blue Jays in the late '70s. He served as mostly an emergency catcher, playing only 4 games there. He was mainly a third baseman.
