Tom Kelly Biography

Tom Kelly only played one season in the big leagues with the Minnesota Twins in 1975, but he returned to the MLB in 1986 as the manager of the Twins and led them to two World Series titles in 1987 and 1991. When all was said and done he’d manage the Twins for 16 seasons and earn the American League Manager of the Year Award in 1991. He got his start in coaching shortly after he left the big leagues in 1975 as a minor league manager, but would quickly show potential as a leader and show how remarkable he was in the dugout with the Twins during his tenure. After his retirement, the Twins showed their appreciation for his dedication to their franchise by retiring his No. 10 jersey and inducting him into their franchise hall of fame.
