The Arizona Diamondbacks have hired Chip Hale to replace fired manager Kirk Gibson for the 2015 season.
Hale was the 3rd base coach of the Oakland Athletics last season. He was the 3rd Base and Infield Coach for the Diamondbacks from 2007-2009. Arizona won the NL West in 2007. He was also the 3rd Base Coach for the NY Mets in 2010.
The Minnesota Twins drafted Hale in the 17th round of the 1987 draft. He made his major league debut with the Twins on August 27th, 1989. He played for the Twins in 1989 and 1990. He was playing for the AAA Portland Beavers on May 27th, 1991 when he hit a deep fly ball to right that became famous when Rodney McCray crashed through the fence while trying to track down the fly ball. Check out the video of that play here.
