Indians Fire Frank Robinson Name Jeff Torborg Manager
The Cleveland Indians dismissed Frank Robinson as manager and named bullpen coach Jeff Torborg the new skipper. Team president Ted Bonda and GM Phil Seghi cited clubhouse divisiveness and a need for change. Robinson, a player manager since 1974, thanked players, press, and fans and said he would seek another job in baseball. Torborg, 35, youngest MLB manager, said the team must focus on a doubleheader with the Detroit Tigers.
