William Grady Little is currently the manager of Major League Baseball's Los Angeles Dodgers.

Drafted by the Atlanta Braves in 1968, Grady played three seasons in the Braves and New York Yankees organizations. In 1980, Little gained his first managerial position for the Baltimore Orioles' Rookie League team in Bluefield, Virginia. He spent 15 full seasons as a manager in the Minor Leagues until 1995.

In March 2002, the Red Sox hired Little as their manager. Little skippered the Red Sox in the 2002 and 2003 seasons, reaching the playoffs in 2003. He was enormously popular with his players as he enhanced the loose nature of the clubhouse and supported struggling players.

Despite winning 188 games in two seasons with the Red Sox, Little is remembered as Red Sox manager most for his controversial decision during game seven of the 2003 American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees. The Red Sox led the game 5-3 in the 8th inning and were five outs away from reaching the World Series. Little visited the mound after starting pitcher Pedro Martinez gave up three straight hits, but he decided against taking out the ace pitcher. The Yankees tied the game on the next hit from Jorge Posada and won the game and the series on Aaron Boone's walk-off home run off of Tim Wakefield in the 11th inning. Little became the scapegoat for the Red Sox loss and was fired during the following offseason.

On 8 December 2005, the Los Angeles Dodgers hired him to replace their previous manager Jim Tracy. As manager of the Dodgers, Little was reunited with several players from the 2002-03 Boston team, including Derek Lowe, Bill Mueller, and Nomar Garciaparra.
