Owner Eddie Chiles officially
fired Don Zimmer as the Texas
Rangers’ manager after
Wednesday night’s 3-2 loss to
the Milwaukee Brewers and
named Darrell Johnson interim
manager.
The post-game news confer
ence contained some bitter mo
ments.
“Don can have any position
he would like in our organiza
tion,” Chiles said.
Zimmer said: “I’d like to
manage Friday night (the Ran
gers’ next game).”
Chiles said: “Well I think Don
would actually like to relax and
play golf on Friday. He has had a
hard time the last few days.”
Zimmer, without a smile, shot
back: “No. I’d like to manage
Friday night.”
During the Brewer victory,
catcher Ted Simmons lifted a
sacrifice fly with one out in the
eighth inning and Bob McClure
and Rollie Fingers combined on
a five-hitter to lead Milwaukee.
With the score tied 2-2, Paul
Molitor led off the Milwaukee
eighth with a single to left and
went to second on a single by
Robin Yount. Both runners
moved up on a sacrifice and
Molitor scored when Simmons
followed with a sacrifice fly to
left off loser Frank Tanana.
McClure, 8-3, struck out five
and walked five. Fingers pitched
the final two innings for his
22nd save.
In other games, Seattle stop
ped Minnesota, 6-2, Baltimore
beat Chicago, 2-1, Cleveland de
feated Kansas City, 4-2, Boston
outscored Toronto, 9-7, New
