Mike Scioscia is a former player, and is the current Manager for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

On January 5, 2009, the Angels announced a contract extension that will make Scioscia the manager of the Angels through the 2018 season. It's something we've worked on for some time, and basically we got it done. It's an agreement in principle, and we're not going to release the terms. We never release the terms of contracts. I'll just say we're looking forward to having him here for a while."MLB.com: Scioscia to get extension from Angels (January 5, 2009)

Sciosica was drafted in with the 19th pick by the Dodgers in the 1976 amateur draft. Scioscia's playing career would begin on April 20, 1980 with the Los Angeles Dodgers where he was installed as the starting catcher for the team. He would play with the Dodgers through 1992. During his time with the team he would be named an National League All-Star in 1989 and 1990. He would also be part of two World Series Championships with the 1981 team, and the Kirk Gibson led 1988 World Series Champions. He would retire never playing a regular season game with another franchise.

In 2000, with the Dodgers unwilling and unable to give Scioscia the Managerial job, Scioscia would be hired by the Dodgers cross town rivals the Anaheim Angels. Scioscia would bring along ex-Dodger teammates Mickey Hatcher and Alfredo Griffin to join his coaching staff, and in 2002 they would bring the franchise their first World Series title. Along the way he would pick up the American League Manager of the Year award, which would cement his status as one of the best Managers in Major League Baseball.
