Timeline

1955

Bruce Douglas Bochy (born April 16, 1955) is an American professional baseball manager and former player who is the manager of the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball (MLB).

During his playing career, Bochy was a catcher for the Houston Astros, New York Mets, and San Diego Padres.

1969

He is the first manager to do so by way of winning the League Championship Series (the LCS did not exist prior to 1969), and just one of seven managers in baseball history to win four or more World Series.

1975

Bochy attended Brevard Community College (later known as Eastern Florida State College) for two years on a partial scholarship, winning a state championship in 1975, before committing to play baseball for Eddie Stanky at South Alabama.

On January 9, 1975, Bochy was drafted by the Chicago White Sox in the eighth round of the 1975 MLB draft, but did not sign.

On June 3, 1975, he was drafted in the first round (24th overall) by the Houston Astros in the 1975 Supplemental Draft and decided to turn professional.

With the Astros, Bochy primarily backed up Alan Ashby.

1980

He was behind the plate in Game 4 of the 1980 NLCS versus the Philadelphia Phillies when Pete Rose ran him over to score the go-ahead run in the top of the tenth inning.

1981

On February 11, 1981, Bochy was traded to the Mets for minor leaguers Stan Hough and Randy Rogers.

1983

On January 21, 1983, he was released by the Mets.

On February 23, 1983, Bochy signed as a free agent with the San Diego Padres.

With the Padres, he was the backup to Terry Kennedy from 1983 to 1986 and rookie catcher Benito Santiago in 1987.

1984

He participated in the first five postseason appearances in Padres history, as a backup catcher in 1984 and as their manager in 1996, 1998, 2005, and 2006.

Bochy was the backup to Terry Kennedy when the Padres won their first NL pennant in 1984, and he played in one game in the 1984 World Series, which the Padres lost in five games to the Detroit Tigers.

1985

On July 1, 1985, Bochy hit a tenth-inning walk-off home run off Nolan Ryan of the Houston Astros, the only walk-off home run allowed in Ryan's career.

Bochy was behind the plate on September 11, 1985, when Pete Rose, with the Cincinnati Reds, collected his record-breaking 4,192nd major league hit off Padres pitcher Eric Show.

1987

On November 9, 1987, Bochy was granted free agency.

1988

In 1988, Bochy spent his final season playing in Triple-A Las Vegas where he served as a player-coach, batting .231 in 53 games.

In 802 career at-bats, he hit .239 with 26 home runs.

After retiring as a player, Bochy was hired by Padres general manager Jack McKeon to manage in their minor league system.

1995

After retiring as a player, Bochy managed the Padres for 12 seasons, from 1995 to 2006, and the San Francisco Giants for 13 seasons, from 2007 to 2019.

As manager, Bochy led the Giants to three World Series championships, the Padres to one World Series appearance, and the Rangers to the franchise's first World Series championship in his first season with the club.

He is one of only three managers to win a World Series championship in both leagues, joining Sparky Anderson and Tony LaRussa as the others.

1998

In 1998, he led the Padres to their first National League (NL) pennant in 14 years; however, they lost the 1998 World Series to the New York Yankees.

2010

Bochy reached the World Series for a second time as the manager of the 2010 Giants, this time in a winning effort over the Texas Rangers, and brought the first ever World Series Championship home to the city of San Francisco; it was the first for the Giants franchise since 1954.

2017

On April 10, 2017, Bochy surpassed Dusty Baker for the most wins in the West Coast portion of Giants history.

He is the only manager in Major League history to win at least 900 games with two different teams.
