PVBL: Deadwood Outlaws
New Manager To Be Named

January 5, 1999

A new manager will be named today for the defending World Champion Deadwood Outlaws at a 11am EST news conference at the league's IRC channel.

Don Slaught, who managed the team for two and a half seasons, asked for a trade becasue he was interested in playing again. GM Phil Raisor wasn't willing to use a roster spot for the 37 year old catcher.

Rumors have leaked that former Outlaw Manager Johnny Bench will be named the new manager, and has been spotted at a downtown Deadwood saloon.
