SAN FRANCISCO -- The Giants announced on Monday that Dusty Baker has rejoined the organization, accepting a position as special advisor to the CEO and will perform duties on the baseball and business side.
"We are thrilled to welcome Dusty back to the organization," said Giants president and CEO Laurence M. Baer. "In addition to being one of the most beloved Giants alumni, Dusty brings a wealth of expertise, knowledge and experience to this position, and I know his contributions will be felt far and wide throughout our organization."
Baker left the organization following the 2002 season, when he led the Giants to the World Series. They lost the Fall Classic to the Angels in seven games. Baker managed the Giants for 10 seasons (1993-2002), leading them to winning records in seven of those years.
Baker proceeded to manage the Cubs, Reds and Nationals after leaving the Giants, reaching the postseason at least once with each team.
