Excerpt From Chapter 7: Would The Manager please Put On Some Real Clothes

But in no sport is it more clear that the man in charge is really a boy than in baseball, where managers wear the same pants, shirt, hat, spikes and, I suspect, even jock straps as their players. This tradition presumably stemmed from the fact that in the early days of the sport many managers also pulled double duty as players. The last player manager, the lovable Pete Rose, also found time to conduct a large scale wagering business on the side (though he never bet on baseball, I mean never on the Reds' games, I mean only on the Reds to win). But no manager in the last twenty years has thrown a pitch or hit a ball in a game or has been elegible to do so, so what exactly in Abner Doubleday's name is going on here?
