Earl Weaver
A 1996 Hall of Fame inductee, Weaver ranks highly among 20th century managers although many umpires didn't appreciate his firey, argumentative nature. Ranking 19th in victories among 20th century managers, his .583 winning percentage (1,480-1,060) over 17 seasons—all in Baltimore—ranks 5th on the all-time list. From 1969 through 1982, he won 6 AL East titles, 4 AL pennants and 1 World Series, beating the Cincinnati Reds in 1970. Earl's Orioles won 100 games or more 5 times, and he earned Manager of the Year honors 3 times. |
