FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
» October 3, 1988: Cardinals coach Nick Leyva becomes the Phillies 3rd manager in three years, replacing Lee Elia, who was fired in September.

» April 23, 1991: Manager Nick Leyva is fired by the Phillies after just 13 games, and replaced by Jim Fregosi. It is the second-fastest firing in major league history. Cal Ripken Sr. was fired by Baltimore after six games in 1988. Under Fregosi, the Phils lose their 10th in 14 games, dropping a 2–1 decision to the Mets. Jason Grimsley is the loser as both Mets score on walks.
