Cedar Rapids Kernels Manager Bobby Magallanes (Angels system) encouraging his batter from the third base coaching box during the first game of an April 25 double-header at Lansing's Oldsmobile Park. The Lansing third baseman is Christian Snavely, and Ryan Klosterman's the shortstop; they're Blue Jays farm hands. Lansing would lose this game, though the finish was still a couple hours off when I shot the picture. Lansing came back hard to win the nightcap. Most Midwest League managers coach at third, which exposes something of their personality to those of us who watch the games from that side. Bobby's a little intense; it's like he's watching six things at once, only some of which are under his control. This is about as relaxed as he gets.
