CLEVELAND (AP) — Terry Francona says he's stepping away from baseball, ending a 23-year managerial career that began in Philadelphia, peaked with two World Series titles in Boston and concluded with an 11-season stay in Cleveland. Guardians president Chris Antonetti said Tuesday that the 64-year-old Francona would have a role with the team moving forward. Francona says: “I need to go home and get healthy and see what I miss about the game. … I don’t foresee managing again.”Cleveland finished the season 76-86 — just the club’s second losing record since Francona took over as manager in 2013. The young Guardians team was unable to overcome a slew of injuries in 2023 and defend its AL Central title.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Terry Francona is down to one home game, a final bow. The 2023 home finale will be a bittersweet celebration as the Guardians will honor the popular Francona, who hasn't officially announced his retirement but is expected to do so formally early next week. "I don’t think that’s fair,” he said. I don’t think that’s fair to them or to the next person to try to put my stamp on it. That’s the beauty of our game.”It won't be easy to replace Francona, who played 10 seasons before beginning his managerial career with Philadelphia in 1997.
