Kid manager

When the owner of the lowly Houston Astros died and turned over control of the team to his 11-year-old grandson Gavin, no one thought he had any chance of bringing them to a pennant. And when he named himself manager, people thought he had no business trying to lead a clubhouse of Major League players! And they were proved right a couple weeks into Gavin's tenure, when he called his African-American shortstop a "dumb monkey" and was forced to resign three days later amid widespread public outrage.
