Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington, the only person to lead the team to the World Series, resigned Friday due to a personal matter. “Today, I have submitted my resignation from the job I love—managing the Rangers—in order to devote my full attention to addressing an off-the-field personal matter,” Washington said in a statement. “As painful as it is, stepping away from the game is what’s best for me and my family.” Bench coach Tim Bogar has been named interim manager.
