Jeff Torborg, a former MLB manager and World Series champion, has passed away at the age of 83.

The Chicago White Sox announced on Sunday that Jeff Torborg, a World Series champion catcher who played 10 seasons in the majors and became a manager for 11 more years, has passed away at the age of 83.

During his playing career from 1964 to 1973, Torborg played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and California Angels. After retiring, he managed the White Sox, Cleveland Indians, New York Mets, Montreal Expos, and Florida Marlins.

In 1965, he was a member of the Dodgers' World Series-winning team, and in 2003, he managed the Marlins, who won the World Series by defeating the New York Yankees in six games.

The Chicago White Sox announced the passing of former MLB catcher and manager Jeff Torborg at the age of 83 in Westfield, N.J.

"In 1990, Torborg was awarded the A.L. Manager of the Year for leading the Sox to a 94-68 record, a 25-game improvement from the previous season."

In his 10-year playing career, Torborg hit .214 with 101 RBI and 297 hits in 1,525 plate appearances. Four years after retiring, he began managing the Indians. He served as manager for one full season and two half-seasons before being let go.

In 1990, he led the White Sox to a 94-68 record with the help of Carlton Fisk, Greg Hubbard, and Bobby Thigpen, but the team missed out on the postseason. Later, he took on the Mets job in 1992 but didn't achieve the same level of success.

In 2001, he served as an interim manager for the Expos, and he was the Marlins' full-time manager in 2002 until he was let go halfway through the 2003 season.

Torborg was a broadcaster during his managerial stints. He was 634-718 as a manager.
