New Twins Manager Billy Gardner Promises Talent Wins
Minnesota Twins appoint Billy Gardner as the third manager in a year amid a 12-25 start. Gardner, 53, succeeds Johnny Goryl after an eight-game slide, and vows to instill a winning habit with a philosophy of hit and run, bunt and steal while aiming for quick team confidence. The move comes as the Twins sit sixth in the AL West, 11 2 games back of Oakland, with Gardner set to debut in a three-game series against Kansas City.
