ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The last time Ron Washington and Bruce Bochy had managed against each other in Texas was during the 2010 World Series.
Baseball’s oldest two managers are facing each other in a three-game series this weekend, with the 72-year-old Washington back in Texas as a visiting manager for the first time with the Los Angeles Angels — and getting 9-3 win in the series opener.
“Wash, he’s entertaining. I love talking to him,” Bochy, who is three years younger than Washington, said before Friday’s game.
They are the only managers to take Texas to the World Series. The Rangers won their first championship last year in Bochy’s first season with them, and went to back-to-back with Washington in 2010 and 2011 — after the franchise that began as the Washington Senators from 1961-71 had never even won a postseason series before that.
