Dusty’s humorous reaction to Bochy getting Rangers job originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea<\/em><\/p>\n

Dusty Baker is ecstatic about the Texas Rangers hiring former Giants manager Bruce Bochy.<\/p>\n

Speaking with reporters before Game 3 of the ALCS between the Houston Astros and New York Yankees on Saturday, Baker took time to acknowledge his friend’s new position with the Rangers.<\/p>\n

“I’m glad for Bruce,” Baker said. “He’s one of my favorite guys. He’s one of the best managers around.<\/p>\n

“I wish he was in the other division. I’m glad he’s back … one more for the old dudes.”<\/p>\n

Bochy and Baker have shared history as both were managers of the Giants, with the former holding the position from 2007-19 and the latter from 1993-2002.<\/p>\n

Additionally, on April 10, 2017 against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Bochy won his 841st game with San Francisco — surpassing Baker’s previous mark of 840. Overall, Bochy won 1,052 games and three World Series titles in his 13 years managing the Giants.<\/p>\n

After retiring in 2019 and since helping out in the Giants’ front office, Bochy unretired and was hired by the Rangers to be their manager on Oct. 21.<\/p>\n

When asked why Bochy decided to return as a manager, the 67-year-old said Monday that as he watched more baseball, he knew that the fire within him to manage a team still burned.<\/p>\n

“I know some have asked why,” Bochy said during his introductory press conference. “Well, the simple answer is I miss this game.”<\/p>\n

After six straight losing seasons, the Rangers are hoping that hiring Bochy — and his proven track record of winning — can help turn things around in Arlington.<\/p>\n

With Bochy in the same division as Baker, the two friends will be seeing more of each other moving forward.<\/p>\n
