Rick Sweet nears 2,500th minor‑league win, a historic milestone

Rick Sweet has been at the helm of minor‑league clubs since 1979. This season his squad posted 85 wins in the Pacific Coast League.

The upcoming game against the Texas Rangers will determine whether he reaches the 2,500‑win mark. Achieving that milestone would place Sweet among the most enduring managers in baseball history.

Fans and former players are organizing a tribute ceremony at the ballpark to celebrate the occasion.
