Giants To Hire Ron Washington As Infield Coach
"Washington, 73, was a first base coach, third base coach and infield coach with the Athletics from 1996 to 2006. He left the A's for an eight-year stint as the manager for the division-rival Rangers, guiding Texas to consecutive World Series appearances in 2010-11 - though the Rangers ultimately fell short in both instances. The Giants a 4-1 World Series in 2010, and Washington's Rangers fell to the Cardinals in a seven-game classic in 2011."
"After his run as the Rangers' skipper, Washington returned to Oakland for the 2015-16 seasons, stepping back into his old role of third base coach. The Braves interviewed Washington for their managerial vacancy in the 2016-17 offseason and were impressed enough to hire Washington to the coaching staff despite ultimately giving the skipper's role to Brian Snitker. Washington spent seven seasons in Atlanta as third base and infield coach, winning a World Series ring in 2021,"
"Washington's time in Anaheim would only last one-plus seasons. The 2024 Halos lost 99 games and finished in last place in the AL West. In 2025, Washington only managed 74 of the team's 162 games. He stepped away from the club due to health reasons in mid-June and revealed a couple months later that he'd undergone a quadruple bypass procedure. Bench coach Ray Montgomery took over for him on an interim basis."
Ron Washington, 73, will join the San Francisco Giants as infield coach for the upcoming season. Washington served as a first-base, third-base and infield coach with the Oakland A's from 1996 to 2006 before leaving for an eight-year run as Texas Rangers manager that included consecutive World Series appearances in 2010 and 2011. Washington returned to Oakland in 2015-16, then joined the Atlanta staff for seven seasons and won a World Series ring in 2021. He was hired as Angels manager in the 2023-24 offseason, stepped away for health reasons in mid-2025, and underwent a quadruple bypass.
