2021 Chachi #38
Gary Jones is the current manager of the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, a position he's held since the 2018 season. Jones was "recalled" on April 19th when several Phillies coaches landed on the Covid-related injured list. Jones served as the team's third base coach for four games and then moved over to first base for one last game on April 24th. Jones had previously coached in the majors with the Athletics and Cubs.
Jones will most likely never be listed on the team's official coaching roster, but I wanted to memorialize his short stint with a Chachi card. This isn't the first time a Chachi set has featured an interim coach card, as in 2008 the team found themselves employing four different interim coaches throughout their championship season.
