I second this. He was pretty much the man.

 

And when you say "man" I assume you mean "woman". He sucked worse than Dale (gay name too, btw).

[YanksHater213]

I dont care how good he was, he was the man. He was hilarious.

[yankeessuck013]

We want Wendell Kim!

 

ahh, Windmill Kim .........

[Cityofchampions33]

Ahhh, if this feeling of him leaving feels good, I wonder how it's gunna feel when we officially reject Kevin Millar. Anyway, who is the top candidate for the job? and who are runner ups?

The man kept an entire rawlings baseball factory in his back pocket. What wasn't to like about him (ok, besides his absolute suckiness). He was the only player on the team that consistently hustled.

[Soxfan1]

I don't like the name kim.

[Cityofchampions33]

Yeah, i twitch once or twice when I hear it

[riverside sluggers]

all hail the sveum era is gone!!

 

worst moment of 2005

sox vs yanks at yankee stadium: stupidly sent 2 runners home, who were both easily out. 5 hits in the 6th inning accounted to just 1 run

[26 to 6]

lmao

[Youk Of The Nation]

suckers!

 

So much for two straight .500 seasons for them, eh?

[youkilis rules]

f*** YES! this is excellent. Dale Sveum f***ing licks taint and I'm so glad the Brewers took him off our hands (though I am located in Wisconsin, grr..) Oh and I remember interviewing DeMarlo for the MANAGERIAL job a couple years ago and him being a great candidate. This is f***ing excellent.

[riverside sluggers]

how is that odd? dale sveum and grady little will both be on the same team in 2006

 

dale sveum: third base coach

grady little: bench coach

[riverside sluggers]

The Red Sox are also going with a new first-base coach. Lynn Jones will be offered another position within the organization, with bullpen coach Bill Haselman taking over.

[stocker323]

The new 3rd base coach is former Texas 1st base coach DeMarlo Hale. He was once interviewed for the Red Sox manager job and has coached in the system before.

Hale Hired

 

The Red Sox named DeMarlo Hale as their new third base coach today.

 

Hale replaces Dale Sveum, who on Wednesday was named third base coach for the Milwaukee Brewers after serving in the same capacity the last two seasons for the Red Sox. Advance scout Dave Jauss and Triple-A manager Ron Johnson were both potential in-house candidates for the position according to the Globe's Gordon Edes.

 

A native of Chicago, the 44-year-old Hale served as the Texas Rangers' first base coach for the last four seasons. Hale was a widely respected former player and manager in the Red Sox farm system before joining the Rangers in 2000 where he was on manager Jerry Narron's staff along with current Red Sox manager Terry Francona who was the Rangers' bench coach.

 

Both the Dallas Morning News and Fort Worth Star Telegram reported on Wednesday that the Red Sox had asked for, and received, permission to speak with Hale about Boston's third base coaching position.

 

In Nov. 2003, the Red Sox interviewed Hale for the managerial opening created by Grady Little's departure and eventually filled by Terry Francona.

 

According to the Globe’s Bob Hohler in a Nov. 2003 story: "Hale, who interviewed with the Rangers last year for the managerial opening that Buck Showalter filled, would (have) become the first African-American manager in Red Sox history. He left the Sox organization after the 1999 season when he was passed over for a promotion to Triple-A Pawtucket despite winning Minor League Manager of the Year honors from Baseball America, The Sporting News, and USA Today's Baseball Weekly for leading Double-A Trenton to a first-place finish in the Eastern League with a record of 92-50.

 

"Hale managed a number of future Sox players on the '99 team in Trenton, including Shea Hillenbrand, Tomo Ohka, Sun Woo Kim, and Paxton Crawford, none of whom remain with the organization. The team also included David Eckstein, who won a World Series ring with the Angels in 2002, and Adam Everett, who was traded to the Astros for Carl Everett.

 

"A 17th-round pick out of Southern University in 1983, Hale played first base and outfield for four seasons in the Sox system, rising as high as Double A before he finished his playing career with a brief stint in Oakland's system in 1988. From there, Hale ventured into enemy territory, working from 1989-92 as an instructor at the Bucky Dent Baseball School in Florida.

 

"The Sox hired Hale as a Double-A coach in '92 and launched his managerial career at Single-A Fort Lauderdale in '93. He spent three seasons managing Single-A teams, then three more years at Trenton before former GM Dan Duquette hired Gary Jones to manage at Pawtucket in 2000 despite Hale's outstanding season in '99. At that, Hale joined the Texas organization, managing their Triple-A affiliate for two years.

 

"In all, Hale posted a 634-614 record in nine minor league seasons before he joined the Rangers in 2001 as first base coach for manager Jerry Narron. Francona was Narron's bench coach," Hohler's story concluded.

 

Hale and his wife Carol reside in Orlando, Fla.
