Eastern League Chooses Best Manager
Friday, December 2nd , 2044
Richard Hauser celebrated a successful season with the Niagara Falls Phantoms by hosting team officials and select media at a Niagara Falls area first-class eatery. But when he first came to town, the 2044 Eastern League Manager of the Year was met with a good measure of skepticism.
"Very few people believed in our ballclub when I got here. It just goes to show you that a bunch of talented ballplayers playing together can make any old manager a genius," a modest Hauser joked, not fully recognizing his own stature in the baseball community.
However, baseball journalists duly noted his managerial skill as he skippered the Phantoms to a 105-27 record this year and a first place finish in the Eastern League North Division.
