Timeline

1921

The team had difficulties in June and July before maneuvering their way back in early September; as late as the 21st, they were just a half game behind Toronto in the East.

However, they lost 11 of their last 14 games and finished seven games behind Toronto.

Although he had one year remaining on his contract, he was fired at season's end in favor of Butch Hobson.

1930

Joseph Michael Morgan (born November 19, 1930) is an American former infielder, manager, coach and scout in Major League Baseball.

A native and lifelong resident of Walpole, Massachusetts, Morgan graduated from Walpole High School and attended Boston College, where he played varsity hockey—he was a center who led the Eagles in points as a junior—as well as baseball.

Morgan was also elected as team captain for Boston College's baseball team during his junior year.

1952

He signed his first professional baseball contract on June 20, 1952, with his then-hometown National League team, the Boston Braves.

Morgan stood 5 ft tall and weighed 170 lb during his active career.

1956

A left-handed-hitting second baseman, third baseman and outfielder, Morgan batted over the .300 mark three times in the high minors between 1956 and 1959.

He could not, however, crack the Braves' lineup, nor those of the Philadelphia Phillies, Kansas City Athletics, Cleveland Indians and St. Louis Cardinals.

In parts of four Major League seasons, he appeared in 88 games, collected 36 hits, and batted .193.

1959

When he made Major League Baseball at age 28 in 1959, after military service and a stint in the minor leagues, his parent team had become the Milwaukee Braves.

1960

His two MLB home runs came during his stint with the 1960 Indians within a two-week period, as he hit solo shots off Chuck Estrada August 30 and Ted Sadowski on September 10.

In the latter contest, Morgan's three hits and two runs scored helped the Indians to a 5–4 victory over the Washington Senators.

In 13 seasons in the minor leagues, Morgan had 1,353 hits (with 117 home runs) and compiled a lifetime batting mark of .278.

1964

He was named Most Valuable Player of the Triple-A International League in 1964 after batting .290 with 16 home runs for the Jacksonville Suns.

1966

In 1966, Morgan became a manager in the farm system of the Pittsburgh Pirates, rising in 1970 to Triple-A with the Columbus Jets of the International League.

His record as a minor league manager over 16 seasons (1966–71; 1973–82) was 1,140 victories and 1,102 defeats (.508) with one league championship (with the York Pirates of the Double-A Eastern League in 1969).

Morgan was called "Walpole Joe," as well as "Turnpike Joe" in tribute to the offseason job he held for many years to supplement his minor league pay: driving a snowplow on the Massachusetts Turnpike.

The nicknames also served to prevent any confusion with Baseball Hall of Fame second baseman Joe Morgan.

His phrases became part of New England folklore, such as "I'm the skipper of this nine!", and "Roger spun another beauty", describing one of the outings by his star pitcher, Roger Clemens.

1971

In 1971, he moved with the Jets to Charleston, West Virginia, and became skipper of the Charleston Charlies.

1972

Morgan was called to the Major Leagues to serve as a Pittsburgh coach under Bill Virdon in 1972, when the Pirates won the National League East Division title but fell in the 1972 NLCS to the Cincinnati Reds.

Morgan then returned to the minors as the Pirates' Triple-A manager.

1973

In 1973, his Charlies won 85 games and the division title, but lost in the International League playoffs to the Pawtucket Red Sox in five games.

Nevertheless, Morgan was selected Minor League Manager of the Year for 1973 by The Sporting News.

Morgan joined the Boston Red Sox organization the following season.

1974

He led the PawSox—located 24 miles (38 km) from his Walpole hometown—for nine years (1974–82), the longest-tenured manager in the franchise's history.

1977

He won the International League Manager of the Year Award in 1977.

1981

Morgan won 601 games, losing 658 (.477) and was the Pawtucket skipper during its famous 33-inning game against Rochester in 1981, though he was ejected in the 22nd.

1982

The parent Red Sox reassigned Morgan after the 1982 season, making him a scout for 1983–84 before he was finally invited to return to the Majors as Boston's first-base coach in 1985.

1986

He worked as the team's bullpen coach during the Red Sox' 1986 pennant-winning season, then replaced Rene Lachemann as Boston's third-base coach in 1987.

1988

In 1988, a Boston team was at one game over .500 under manager John McNamara, leading the ownership to fire him during the All-Star break.

They named Morgan acting manager July 14 and began negotiations with high-profile candidates, such as Joe Torre and Lou Piniella, who were under contract to other organizations.

The Red Sox won their first 12 games under Morgan – a period dubbed by the press as Morgan Magic – and the team named him as their permanent field boss.

The 1988 Red Sox won the AL East, but were swept by the Oakland Athletics in the American League Championship Series; two years later, the 1990 Sox repeated history, winning their division but bowing in four straight to the A's in the playoffs.

Collectively, the Red Sox were 0–8 in the post season under Morgan, an American League record.

1991

In 1991, Morgan guided a Boston team to a second-place finish in the AL East.

1992

Under Hobson, the 1992 Red Sox finished last in the AL East.

Morgan's final big league managerial totals: 301–262 (.535) over 3 1⁄2 years, all with the Red Sox.
