[edit] Biographical Information
Rocky Bridges managed 21 years in the minors between 1964 and 1989, compiling a record of 1300-1358. He was a coach for the Los Angeles Angels (1962-1963), California Angels (1968-1971), and San Francisco Giants (1985). Bridges also scouted for the Giants in 1983-1984.
Greg Minton recounts that during one minor league game, where he had "given up something like seven runs... and the bases were still loaded", Bridges came up to him and said "I'm gonna go into my office and fill out reports. If this inning ever gets over, you come in and get me."
