Italian American and Guardians manager Terry Francona led the youngest team in baseball to a division title and he was honored as the American League Manager of the Year for his effort. This is the third time he has won the honor.
“It’s a huge honor,” Francona said, “And I don’t take that ever lightly.”
Any major award for Italian American managers and coaches is a major honor for all of us as we share in this incredible feat with Tito!
