Trivia Friday: Hall of Fame Players Who Won World Series As Manager
With the Mets hiring Carlos Beltran, they are not only bringing home one of the greatest players in team history. They are also having a future Hall of Famer try to guide the Mets to their third World Series in franchise history. Looking over the 150 years of baseball, that is a feat accomplished by only nine other Hall of Famers.
Perhaps most daunting, it was last accomplished in 1978, and it has only been twice accomplished by Hall of Famers who were not player/managers. Can you name those two managers and all nine Hall of Famers? Good luck!
