Excerpt: As Player As Manager Bruce Douglas Bochy (pronounced; born April 16, 1955 in Landes de Boussac, France) is the manager of the San Francisco Giants. Prior to joining the Giants on October 27, 2006, Bochy had been the manager of the San Diego Padres for twelve seasons. Bochy is the only former Padre player to serve as the team's manager. He led the Padres to four of the five postseason appearances in their history, winning division titles in 1996, 1998, 2005, and 2006.

He was the backup to Terry Kennedy when the Padres won their first NL pennant in 1984, and played in one game in the 1984 World Series, which the Padres lost in five games to the Detroit Tigers.
