Reds Manager Trivia

[ohstatefan]

Name the three managers who have taken the Reds to the playoffs more than once.

Hard to believe there are only 3. If you guys don't get 2 of them in the next 5 minutes, I'll assume the S&GF servers are down.

Dusty Baker, Sparky Anderson, & Lou Piniella

Not Lou. He was only there from 90-92.

I think the third is Bill Mchechnie or something like that. Back in the 30s and 40s.

Wow you guys are fast.

Dusty Baker - 2010, 2012
Sparky Anderson - 1970, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1976, 1979
Bill McKechnie - 1939, 1940

Of course these eras aren't really comparable. When McKechnie coached the team, only 2 teams made the playoffs each year, with Sparky it was 4, and with Dusty it was 8, now 10.

Of course there were only 16 teams in 1940, 24 by 1976, and the 30 we have now.
