White Sox manager Tony La Russa is expected to plead guilty to misdemeanor reckless driving under the terms of a four-page plea agreement obtained Sunday by the Chicago Sun-Times.
A so-called change-of-plea hearing has been set for Dec. 21 in La Russa's driving-under-the-influence case in Maricopa County, Arizona. La Russa has asked to appear by telephone.
Most notably, the plea deal states La Russa "shall serve one (1) day in jail." According to the court document, the charge he's facing carries a maximum sentence of four months detention.
