\u201cWe were extremely fortunate to have Duffy back in Kenosha for the launch of the Kingfish and our Northwoods League Championship in 2015,\u201d Kingfish Owner\/ Chief Operating Officer Conor Caloia said. \u201cWe are grateful to have spent six seasons with Duffy, his wife Lynn and his son Brian.

Dyer was drafted 9th<\/sup> overall by the New York Mets in 1966, and was a member of the famed 1969 \u201cAmazing Mets\u201d that captured the World Series crown.\u00a0 Dyer spent 14 years in the majors as a player, also having stints with the Pittsburgh Pirates, Montreal Expos and Detroit Tigers.<\/p>\nAfter his playing days, Dyer developed his coaching resume with both major and minor league clubs.\u00a0 Dyer coached with the Chicago Cubs, Minnesota Twins, Milwaukee Brewers and Oakland Athletics.<\/p>\n
Dyer came to Kenosha, and Historic Simmons Field, in 1984 to manage the Class A Kenosha Twins for the 1984 and 1985 seasons.\u00a0 Dyer won a Midwest League Championship in 1985.<\/p>\n
