Bucky Harris

Stanley Raymond "Bucky" Harris was an American professional baseball second baseman, manager and executive. While Harris played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Washington Senators and Detroit Tigers, it was his long managerial career that led to his enshrinement in the Baseball Hall of Fame, elected as a manager by the Veterans Committee, in 1975. Hired by the Senators to act as player-manager at the age of 27, Harris would lead the team to the 1924 World Series title, becoming the youngest manager to win a championship and the first rookie manager to do so. Harris managed 29 seasons, fourth most in MLB history. In his tenure as manager for five teams, Harris won over 2,150 games, three league pennants and two World Series championships, with the gap between appearances/championships in the World Series being the longest in major league history.
