Jim Snyder (baseball player)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James Robert Snyder (born August 15, 1932 in Dearborn, Michigan) was a second baseman for the Minnesota Twins from 1961 to 1964. He never was a starter and was used only as a backup for Harmon Killebrew in Minnesota. After his playing days, he became a coach, and in the 1988 season, he became the interim manager for the Seattle Mariners when Dick Williams was fired after only 56 games. He finished the year 45-60, good for last place in the American League West.
