Terry Francona, a veteran baseball manager, returns to the field with the Cincinnati Reds after a year-long break necessitated by health issues, including surgery. Francona expresses joy in returning to the ballpark, emphasizing his comfort and love for the game. Reflecting on the toll of managing, he acknowledges the mental and physical strains that led to his hiatus, but now feels rejuvenated and ready to contribute positively in his role. The Reds, in need of revival, hope Francona's leadership will steer them toward success this season.
I had a good year, man. I needed to be away from the game. And when you say that, when you know it yourself, you're probably, probably a little late.
My mind went right back into baseball, and it kind of feels good. I enjoy, I love coming to the ballpark. There's no place on this earth I'm more comfortable.
