    You could have just said he played for Billy Gardner………unless of course you didn’t know either.

    From Wikipeda

    The success of the Orioles’ pitching staff made Miller a sought-after managerial candidate and on June 21, 1985, he received his first opportunity. Billy Gardner, who had led the Twins to a disappointing 27-35 record, was fired and Miller took control of the young Minnesota ballclub. Although the Twins improved to 50-50 over the remainder of the season, they performed so poorly (59–80, .424) in 1986, Miller was replaced as skipper by Tom Kelly on September 12.

    Billy Gardner must have been a pro walleye guy. Never heard of him.

    Was he a Kappa at UW-L around ’81, ’82? I’m pretty sure I partied with that guy.
