Mets' Harrelson: This Bud's for you, Columbia
The State (Columbia, SC), January 19, 1985
Bud Harrelson is the new manager of the Columbia Mets of the South Atlantic League. In this article he reflects on what he learned the previous year at Little Falls in his first season as a professional manager. He's also photographed wearing what looks to be a ridiculously large button on his jacket.
