CHICAGO — You’ve got to have thick skin to be a major-league manager, and no one alive has managed more major-league games than Tony La Russa.
But being booed by your own fans has to sting a little, even for someone as grizzled as La Russa.
So I asked the Chicago White Sox manager before Sunday’s 8-6 loss to the Texas Rangers in 12 innings whether the booing had any effect on him.
