Narron named Brewers manager
Johnny Narron is once again the manager of the Helena Brewers.
Narron, who managed the club in 2004, was hired as the skipper for the 2007 season.
He is the brother of Cincinnati Reds manager Jerry Narron, served as the team’s hitting instructor this past season and in 2003. He replaces Eddie Sedar, who will be Milwaukee’s first base coach for 2007.
Narron, 55, joined the Brewers organization in 2003 after serving six seasons as an associate scout with the Atlanta Braves organization. Narron managed Helena in 2004 leading them to a 39-37 record.
“My strength is the hitting side, but I also enjoy the managing side,” Narron said from his hometown in Goldsboro, NC. “My goal is to one day be a major league hitting coach or be a minor league hitting coordinator, but I want to do anything I can to help the Milwaukee Brewers organization.”
