ColonelNation32 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Peter Mackanin, Jr. (born August 1, 1951 in Chicago, Illinois) is the acting manager of the Cincinnati Reds. Mackanin was drafted by the Washington Senators in the 1969 Major League Baseball Draft and made his debut with them in 1973, after they'd moved and become the Texas Rangers. In a 9-year career, he also played for the Montréal Expos, Philadelphia Phillies, and Minnesota Twins. In 548 games, he had a batting average of .226, 355 hits, 30 home runs, and 141 RBI. After retiring as a player, Mackanin spent many years managing and coaching in the minor leagues. He became the Expos' Third Base Coach in 1997 and spent four years in that position. After returning to minor league managing for two years, he became Bench Coach for the Pittsburgh Pirates for the 2003 season. He served as interim Manager of the Pirates for the last month of the 2005 season, leading the team to a 12-14 record. He is currently the Advance Scout for the Cincinnati Reds. He is a graduate of Brother Rice High School in Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 No way this guy finishes the season. Looks like I'm getting my wish with a fire and full time replacement over an interim we end up stuck with for two years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
