After spending a year out of a baseball clubhouse, Terry Francona is coming back to manage the Cleveland Indians. The Indians suffered their second season collapse and fired former manager Manny Acta, who spent almost three years with Cleveland and his second managing job (the other being the Washington Nationals) that ended with a losing record. Francona's father Tito played for the Indians during the 60's-70's and Terry was a special assistant under now-team president Mark Shapiro in 2001. Francona led the Boston Red Sox out of their 86 year World Series slump in 2004, then led them to another title in 2007.
