Answer 1

Joe Torre, Yankees

Answer 2

Casey Stengel won 7 and 5 in a row 1949-1953, 1956 and 1958, Connie Mack won 5 1910, 1911, 1913, 1929 and 1930. , Joe McMaCarthy won 7 i1932, 1936,1937,1938,1939, 1941 and 1943, Joe Torre has won 4, Walter Alston has won 4, John McGraw won 3, Sparky Anderson has won 3, I think thats the best of the lot

Answer 3

Casey Stengel with the Yankees from 1949-1953 won five in a row, and also won in 1956 and 1958.

Joe McCarthy also won 7 with the Yankees, 1932, 1936-39, 1941, 1943.

Answer 4

I've found three...

- Connie Mack won 5 for the Philly A's during his 53 years as manager (he was player/manager for the Pittsburgh Pirates from 1894-96)

- Joe McCarthy has him beat, though. He won 7 world series for the Yankees in the 30's and 40's. He also managed the Cubs and Red Sox, but only won a pennant for the latter.

- Casey Stengel also won 7 World Series for the Yankees in the 40's and 50's.

And those are the three. I want to give honourable mentions to those who have four:

- Joe Torre, don't need to explain myself, but they aren't all Yankees managers.

- Walter Alston... an obscure name, but he won four world series for the Dodgers (both Brookland and L.A.) in the 50's and 60's.

All of them, except for the active Torre are Hall of Famers.

Answer 5

I'm pretty sure Casey Stengel has the most. He won seven World Series (in a 10-year period, including five in a row). And Connie Mack won five total, but he also managed for 50 years (while Stengel managed for 25 years).

Answer 6

Casey Stengel

Answer 7

Connie Mack and Joe Torre only has 4 with the yanks he never won one as a player. His first victory was in 1996.

Bio
Connie Mack was once a catcher, but made his mark as a manager. After a stint at the helm of Pittsburgh, he assumed control of the Philadelphia Athletics in 1901 and continued for 50 years until retirement at the age of 88. "The Tall Tactician," best remembered as a dignified, scorecard-waving leader in a business suit, won five World Series crowns and built two dynasties - with four pennants in five years from 1910 to 1914 and three in a row from 1929 to 1931. He holds the mark for wins (3,776) by a skipper.


Quote
"Connie entered the game when it was a game for roughnecks. He saw it become respectable, he lived to be a symbol of its integrity, and he enjoyed every minute of it."
— sportswriter Red Smith

Did You Know... that when John McGraw called Connie Mack’s Athletics a "white elephant" that no one else wanted, Mack adopted the pachyderm as his mascot, a symbol still used by the Oakland A’s?

Answer 9

McGraw, Stengel to name two.

Answer 10

Torre's the only one I know of.
