This could almost never happen if a manager makes the World Series the previous year, but hypothetically speaking let's say Willie Randolph made the World series last year, lost and still got fired this year. He would be the NL manager of the All Star game still. Who then would be the manager-the new Mets manager or someone else?

Especially significant since the winner would determine home field advantage in World Series.

  1. thE MANGER THAT WAS SIGNED BY THAT year


  2. probally the manager with the baest record at the time.

  3. The manager of the second place team in the league.  If the Mets played the Phillies and won, but the Met's manager got fired, the Phillies manager would do the all star game

  4. In 1964 the Yankees played the Cardinals in the world series and lost.  They fired their manager (Yogi Berra) and hired the manager away from the Cardinals (Johnny Keane).  

    Anybody know who managed the 1965 all stars in both leagues?

  5. I would guess that manager would still be able to manage the all star game if there was nothing in the contract between the owners and the commissioner that outlaws this from happening.  If there is something in the contract that says the manager cannot be there, then there should be a remedy in place that states, which manager would replace him.Probably the manager who lost to the world series entrant.

    As bo-sox said above, the manager who replaces the fired manager might be the correct answer.
