Scioscia announced he was stepping down as Los Angeles’ manager after his team’s season-ending 5-4 win over the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.
He had led the Angels since 2000.
Scioscia guided the Angels to a win over the San Francisco Giants in the 2002 World Series. He accumulated a 1,650-1,428 record during his 19 seasons in Los Angeles.
But, the Angels have struggled in recent years. They last made the playoffs in 2014 and racked up a combined 319-329 mark in the last four seasons.
Los Angeles made seven playoff appearances and reached the American League Championship Series (ALCS) three times under Scioscia’s leadership.
