The Cleveland Police Department found Cleveland Guardians' manager Terry Francona's scooter and returned it to him on Wednesday. Francona, who uses the scooter as his transportation to and from Progressive Field, was happy to say the least, per the Guardians Twitter account.
"Back in business!"

“There we go! Feel that power… back in business!” Francona exclaimed before riding off into the sunset… or to the parking garage exit.
Terry Francona has done a tremendous job since taking over managing duties in Cleveland. Although the Guardians haven't won a World Series under his leadership, they've reached the postseason 6 times. Additionally, Francona led the Guardians to the World Series before falling to the Chicago Cubs in 2016.
He's the reigning AL Manager of the Year as well. Francona recently offered a humble take on his impressive managing prowess.
“I came here for the right reasons and it was for people,” Francona said, via Hayden Grove. “I get probably too much credit for some things that happen here. I think there are so many people in place that certainly make me better.”
Terry Francona is looking to lead the Guardians back to the postseason in 2023. Cleveland upset the odds and reached the playoffs in 2022 despite featuring MLB's youngest roster. They went on to defeat the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL Wild Card Series before pushing the New York Yankees to the brink in the ALDS. Although they fell just short against New York, the future is bright for this young ball club.
And with Francona leading the way, the Guardians will be a dangerous team in 2023.
