Rack him for being a stand-up manager's manager.

May he rest in peace.

He was the manager of the 1964 Phillies who had perhaps the single greates collapse of a season in a span of 10 games. There were 12 games left in the season with the Phillies leading the league by 6 1/2 games and the Phillies imploded, losing 10 straight games and the pennant.
