Buck Showalter did just about everything in baseball.
One thing he never did was get to a World Series.
The same could have been said for his former minor league teammate, Don Mattingly — until now, as the Blue Jays open the World Series against the Dodgers on Friday in Toronto with Mattingly as the bench coach.
