In 1933, at age 26 and in ...
his FIRST year as player-manager (he played 152 games at shortstop, batted .309, and led the A.L. in doubles), Joseph Edward Cronin led the Washington Senators to their last A.L. Championship. It don't get much moh betta than this! Although Cronin batted .318 in the World Series, the N.Y. Giants prevailed.
Cronin later managed the Red Sox for several years, leading them to the A.L. Championship in 1946, and subsequently served as President of the A.L. for a number of years. Val

In 1901, at age 31 and in ...
his FIRST year as player-manager (he led the A.L. in winning % with a 24-7 pitching record), Clark Calvin Griffith, the "Old Fox" who recognized the managerial potential of Bucky Harris and Joe Cronin, led the Chicago White Stockings to the A.L. Championship (there was no World Series until 1903).
This was the only championship for manager Griffith, although he did pilot the N.Y. Highlanders (Yankees) to 2nd place in 1904 & 1906 and the Senators to 2nd place in 1912 & 1913. Val
