[I]Post-playing career
His wife Hazel died on August 1, 1930. Her death left a gaping hole in Johnson's life which he attempted to fill.
In 1929, Johnson returned to the Senators as manager. In his first season he went 71-81, but, in his next three years, his teams averaged 93 wins. The squad never won a pennant under Johnson, though.
In 1933, he was hired by the Cleveland Indians, where he went 179-168 in three seasons. His kind demeanor and inability to understand how his pitchers couldn't work themselves out of jams helped lead to his undoing as a manger.
He served as a Senators broadcaster in 1939.
After his managing career ended, Johnson won a seat as Montgomery County Commissioner in Maryland.
In 1940, he ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Congress.
Thanks for supplying the Walter Johnson post career bio, Carlton!
I actually was aware of these facts as I read net54's own Hank Thomas' great biography entitled "
Walter Johnson-Baseball's Big Train". For those of you that would love to learn more about Walter Johnson's great career, I would
highly recommend that you read Hank's book. It's spectacular!!
