MISSION VIEJO, Calif. - Del Crandall, a star catcher who played on two Milwaukee Braves teams that reached the World Series in the 1950s before managing the Milwaukee Brewers and Seattle Mariners, has died. He was a member of the Braves’ 1957 World Series championship team as well as the 1958 squad that lost the World Series. Crandall played for the Boston Braves (1949-50), Milwaukee Braves (1953-63), San Francisco Giants (1964), Pittsburgh Pirates (1965) and Cleveland Indians (1966). When Aaron joined the Milwaukee Brewers in 1975, Crandall was his manager. “I’m grateful for that.”Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
