SANTO DOMINGO. The general manager of the Licey Tigers, Fernando Ravelo, reported yesterday that the American Dave Clark will take over the team for this season.
"We chose Clark because it is a connoisseur of the Winter Leagues," said Ravelo.
David Earl Clark was an outfielder who played from 1986-1998 with the Cleveland Indians, Pirates, Cubs, Dodgers and Astros as well as serving as branch manager of the Houston Astros in the Pacific Coast AAA.
"We interviewed good candidates, some could not be present and others were very good, was a bit difficult, but we've made a good choice," said Ravelo.
Clark, 48, was interim manager of the Astros in the last fifteen days of the 2009 season. It will also be the 53rd manager to lead the current deca-champions of the Caribbean and the first American of color since Ron Washington did in the winter of 1999-00.
Prior to Washington, went to the Bengalis, Lorenzo Bundy (1996), Leo Posada (1991), John Roseboro (1990) and Alonzo Perry (1952).
Clark finished the selection process for candidates after passing the likes of Ryne Sandberg, Al Pedrique, Luis Sojo and Rafael Landestoy, among others.
Licey start as owner of the house this winter against the Chosen, when after seven-thirty of the night opening of the winter baseball season.
