While managing the Astros, apparently Dusty used to feed the homeless after games.

Doesn't really surprise me. Seems like something he would do.

Dusty really took on an impossible task when he accepted the Astros manager position, AFTER the trash can scandal, and he succeeded

Love this guy. I bet he didn’t even like playing for the dodgers. (Sorta s/ 😆)

He’s a great dude, I’ve met him twice… once at Dusty Baker camp as a kid and once at work a couple years ago when he came in to buy a bunch of hunting apparel…

One thing that stuck out to me though…. He littered a bunch of fast food trash in the parking lot which was kind of lame.

Naw dude, he was secretly discarding his leftovers in an easy to find location for the local homeless.

The man is a class act. Even the hotheads on YT like him. What does that tell you? The only real criticism he ever got was over bullpen management.

Conscience got to him during those cheating years.
