Manager Biography - Jeff McBride

League
This is McBride's first season in the league. The Astros have been an average team over the course of the league's history; however, 2000 was their finest season, making it to the postseason for the first time ever. They hope McBride can continue the club's renaissance.

Personal
McBride makes his home in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He graduated from the University of Tulsa and will do the same in May, this time from its law school. He is married to his wife Tammy and the couple has one child. McBride has signed on with the Marine Corps and will spend some time in the JAG before a career in patent law.
