Don Mattingly was named the next manager of the Dodgers following Joe Torre’s Friday retirement. In a press conference, the Dodger’s organization had nothing but praise for Torre and expressed high hopes for Mattingly’s success.

The press conference was marred, however, when finishing the conference, Mattingly hesitated and returned. Under a little-understood MLB rule, Mattingly was then required to replace his pitching coach for the 2011 season. “I don’t know what to say,” Mattingly said. “I’ve been playing this game a long time and I had no idea how that rule worked.”
