Don Mattingly will return as manager of the Miami Marlins in 2022, Kim Ng said Thursday.

Ng revealed the decision during the telecast of Miami's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. There is a mutual option on Mattingly's contract for 2022.

"We've exercised our portion [of the contract], and Donnie has said that he wants to be back for 2022," Ng said. "So we're pretty excited about that one."

Mattingly, 60, is in his sixth season with the Marlins and is 345-447 with the organization.
