TOLEDO, OH (WKZO AM/FM) – Lloyd McClendon is returning to the Detroit Tigers organization to manage Detroit’s Triple-A affiliate Toledo Mud Hens in 2022.
McClendon was most recently on Ron Gardenhire’s staff and became interim manager for the Tigers for the final eight games of the 2020 season. He was also the skipper for the Mud Hens in 2016.
McClendon replaces Gary Jones who was promoted to Detroit to serve as first-base coach after Kimera Bartee passed away last month.
