On November 17, 2005, Nipper returned to the big leagues when he was named bullpen coach of the Red Sox. Since his retirement, he had served in a number of positions in the Red Sox minor leagues.
Nipper graduated from Truman State University in Kirksville, MO (Formerly Northeast Missouri State University.)
Roger Clemens's decision should come soon, AlNipper said yesterday, probably within a couple of weeks, if not days, of the 20th anniversary of his 20-strikeout game against the Seattle Mariners in Fenway Park, which is Saturday.
Nipper, who 10 years ago was fired by Dan Duquette as Sox pitching coach, just a month into what was Clemens's last season in Boston before he left for Toronto as a free agent, returned to the Sox as minor league pitching coordinator and was promoted this winter to bullpen coach.
Nipper said he expects Clemens will make a decision next month and be pitching for someone in June.
