Managerial turnover

[edit]

The1974 Braves had thrived under managerClyde King upon his appointment July 24, going 38–25 to finish the year 14 games above .500. But the 1975 club fell under the break-even mark May 23 and never recovered. They were 58–76 (.433) and 311⁄2 games behind theCincinnati Reds when King was fired on August 29, 1975. With only a handful of games left in the season, special scoutConnie Ryan, a veteran former Braves' infielder and coach, was named to finish out the string, and the club performed even more poorly under Ryan, at 9–18.

For1976,GM Eddie Robinson promised to hire a "firebrand" to replace the scholarly King,^[12] and in October he selectedDave Bristol as the team's new skipper. Bristol, 42, had been the third-base coach of theMontreal Expos from 1973 to 1975 and had previously compiled a poor record (144–209, .408) with the 1970–1972Milwaukee Brewers. But he was hailed as an unsung contributor to "the Big Red Machine" Cincinnati dynasty, when, asSparky Anderson's predecessor, he inserted into the lineup many of the players—likeJohnny Bench,Lee May,Tommy Helms, andGary Nolan—who proved to be key contributors to the Cincinnati championship clubs of the early 1970s. Bristol also had led the Reds tofirst division finishes in each of his three full seasons (1967–1969) as manager.

Said Helms upon Bristol's hiring by the Braves: "[Bristol] has a way of letting the players know how to win and what it's like to win. He's fiery and he's tough, but he's a ballplayer's man."^[13]
