Baker back at Wrigley as Reds' manager (AP)
Published 4/16/2008 at Yahoo! Sports - MLB News
Dusty Baker popped up the steps in a red Cincinnati warmup jacket and made his way across the field to a familiar dugout, the one where he spent four years managing the Chicago Cubs through good times and bad. There was a quick stop behind the batting cage for a hug from Chicago third baseman Aramis Ramirez and then a big embrace from Cubs broadcaster Ron Santo once he reached the bench area.
