Martin Returns to Manage Yankees Amid Jackson Tensions
Billy Martin resumes managing the New York Yankees with Reggie Jackson expected to be a key player after a rocky history. Jackson may move to designated hitter or right field when healthy, while George Steinbrenner pushes for harmony as the team tries to rebound from a late-season slump. The move follows Bob Lemon’s interim tenure and comes as injuries linger on the roster.
