The baseball world is in mourning after the death of former MLB manager, coach and player Pat Carrales, who passed away at the age of 82, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today.
“RIP legendary Pat Corrales, 82, a fiery player, manager and baseball executive who leaves behind quite a fabulous legacy,” Nightengale tweeted. “It was a privilege to know and spend time with him.”
Corrales is most remembered for being the manager of the Texas Rangers from 1978-80, Philadelphia Phillies from 1982-83 and then the Cleveland Indians (now Guardians) from 1983-87.
“We are saddened to hear of the passing of former Cleveland Manager Pat Corrales. Corrales spent nine years as a Major League Manager, leading our club from 1983-87,” the Guardians shared on Twitter.
