Jim coached me in my first year of professional ball in the Appalachian League. He helped ease the tension of playing baseball in the sixties for me.

To The Family,
Many do not know what a brilliant baseball man Jim Frey was. The teams that he managed made it to the playoffs often, and from what I recall he always had a good rapport with his players. Please accept my deepest thoughts of sympathy in the passing of Mr. Jim Frey.

I owe my career baseball career to JIm Frey. Jim resigned me in 1969 after being released by the Phillies as a weak hitting catcher with a good arm. Thankfully Jim converted me to a pitcher.
Jim was a good baseball man who worked in many areas of the game; player, scout, manager, general manager, and radio commentator. A nice person and good family man . He loved his wifes , Joan and family dearly. I am sure he is playing a round of golf in a good place. RIP, Jim .

I appreciate all ones who helped them, and as manager, it had to be a rewarding experience. May the God of Comfort, continue to comfort the family, during these difficult times.

Jim Frey did a good job with the Cubs and brought them a return to victory, like Zimmer, Piniella and finally Maddon did, and with the Royals, made men like Howser and Whitey Herzog proud, rest in peace Skip!
