Boudreau Ends Managerial Ambitions for Three Playing Years
Lou Boudreau said he will not manage another major league club until he retires as an active player, likely three years as a part time infielder. He joined the Red Sox to help Steve ONeill and Joe Cronin win the pennant, though he expects no regular infield job. ONeill may use him at third against left handed starters at Fenway, and Boudreau says player manager duties are behind him after eight years.
