Quilici Named Twins Manager After Rigney Firing
MINNEAPOLIS AP Youthful Frank Quilici was named manager of the Minnesota Twins on Thursday replacing Bill Rigney who was fired by President Calvin Griffith. Griffith said the move aimed to restart effort on the field as the Twins stood 36-34 and third in the AL West. Rigney said Griffith told him he wanted a local man and Rigney told players of the decision before practice. Quilici, 33, played for the Twins from 1965 to 1970 and has been with the organization 11 years as a coach and former utility infielder with a .214 lifetime average.
