Fred Hutchinson 1952

Hutchinson had accomplished that rarest of baseball job changes - going from the Detroit Tiger starting rotation to being its manager - and was in his first year managing with the Cardinals when George Heyer captured him for SPORT.

With the exception of the first half of 1959, Hutchinson was a major league manager from the day the Tigers anointed him until spreading cancer caused him to leave the Reds for good on August 12, 1964.
