I'm happy for him, but not for any holdovers from the cheaters.

Dusty wasn’t part of the Cheating Stros so I’m okay with it I guess.

Damn - this was really his first WS win as a manager? That snuck up on me.

I agree with you. This WS had no appeal for me. Hate Philly sports, especially baseball and football. And hate Houston for the cheating garbage that went on a few years back. But Ok with Dusty finally winning as a manager. He's a good guy. Brother in law working an assignment in Philly for a few more days. Told him win or lose to stay away from stadium area and downtown, true Philadelphia will come out.

Sure. He certainly has his drawbacks as a manager, but he’s an entertaining old school baseball guy who has certainly paid his dues.

Baker is #10 on the all-time manager wins list and now he has a World Series ring. He's gotta be in the HOF I would think. Look at some of the guys he's ahead of

Sure, got nothing against him, and he's an institution in the game.

Happy for Dusty. So many times he came up short. Good for him for finally climbing the mountain.
