Houston Astros, former Reds manager Dusty Baker agree to two-year deal

Dusty Baker – who managed the Cincinnati Reds from 2008 to 2013 – will be named the Houston Astros' new manager after they agreed Wednesday to a two-year deal, according to multiple reports.

Baker interviewed with the Astros earlier this month. Houston fired manager A.J. Hinch and general manager Jeff Luhnow after MLB's sign-stealing investigation of the team.
