After missing out on the postseason for the past few seasons, Bruce Bochy is back in the playoffs with the Texas Rangers. Bochy, who has managed the San Francisco Giants for the last 12 years, was hired by the Rangers in November 2019 and is now leading them to their first playoff appearance since 2016.
Bochy is no stranger to the postseason. He led the Giants to three World Series titles during his tenure, and he has a career record of 11-7 in the playoffs. He is also one of only two managers to lead two different teams to the World Series (the other being Tony La Russa).
The Rangers have been one of the most improved teams in baseball this season, and Bochy has been a big part of that. He has implemented a culture of accountability and hard work, which has helped the team reach new heights. He has also done a great job of managing the pitching staff, which has been the team’s strength all season.
Bochy’s experience and leadership have been invaluable to the Rangers this season. He has helped them reach the playoffs for the first time in four years, and he has them poised to make a deep run in October. It’s been a long time coming for Bochy, but he’s finally back in the postseason with a team that looks ready to make some noise.
