Dusty Baker Becomes 12th Manager To Win 2,000 Games 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed May 4, 2022 6:39 am

Dusty Baker became the 12th manager in major league history to win 2,000 games -- and the first Black manager to reach the milestone -- with the Astros\' 4-0 victory Tuesday night over the Seattle Mariners in Houston.

It came more than 29 years after he collected his first win on April 6, 1993, in San Francisco\'s 2-1 victory over St. Louis.

\"I\'m probably one of the luckiest men to ever walk on this earth,\'\' a grinning Baker said minutes after the final out Tuesday.
