Mark McGwire is returning to baseball as hitting coach under St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa. The Cardinals said Monday that La Russa had agreed to a one-year contract for a 15th season as manager and that McGwire will replace Hal McRae. McGwire hit a then-record 70 home runs in 1998 and retired with 583 homers in 2001.
