Bobby Cox will manage the Atlanta Braves in an exhibition game.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Bobby Cox is returning to the dugout -- but only
for one exhibition.
The former Braves manager will be back in uniform to manage the
organization's top prospects against the current major leaguers on
April 3.
The game will be played at the home of the Braves' Triple-A
Gwinnett team near Atlanta.
Atlanta planned the exhibition as a bridge between spring
training and the regular-season opener on April 5. The game will be
played instead of an exhibition against an AL opponent at Turner
Field.
Cox retired as manager after the 2010 season with 2,504
regular-season wins, fourth behind Connie Mack, John McGraw and
Tony La Russa.
His No. 6 was retired by the Braves.
