“It’ll be fun to see him. … With him coming in, he has a magic touch sometimes. It’ll be interesting to see what he can do with them,” Brandon Crawford said of new Rangers manager…
SURPRISE, Ariz. — Bruce Bochy is reminded every day of what drew him back.
Standing at his locker in the Rangers clubhouse here, Miller was merely echoing the sentiment of the room. The Rangers’ spring training camp is located some 40 miles west of the Giants’ Scottsdale facilities, which Bochy called home for the past 16 springs, as manager from 2007-19 and as an adviser the past three years after announcing his retirement.
For 25 straight years, from 1995 to 2019, Bochy was one of 30 people in the world who could call themselves a major-league manager. He’s one of an even smaller number to work that long without ever being fired. He won three World Series, more games in San Francisco than any other Giants manager and built a surefire case for the Hall of Fame.
But perhaps it shouldn’t be a surprise that Bochy was drawn back into the game, or that the game was drawn back to Bochy. Since he resigned, Dusty Baker was hired out of retirement and led the Astros to a World Series title; Showalter, 66, was hired by the Mets and took them to the postseason; and Bob Melvin, 61, steadied the ship in San Diego after another first-year manager was let go.
Semien grew up in El Cerrito as a Giants fan. He observed Bochy’s teams for years, from his time at St. Mary’s High , to Cal , but hadn’t met him until camp opened.
