Rac Slider
Slider toiled 11 years as player in the Kansas City A's, Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox organizations primarily at shortstop. He would labor another 21 years as a minor league manager for the Red Sox from Rookie ball to AAA. This baseball lifer finally made it to the majors as a bullpen coach for the Red Sox in 1987 and would stay at Fenway Park until 1990 moving on to serve as a minor league infield instructor. Here he is pictured as a Seattle Rainier where Slider played off and on from 1962 to 1964.
