Tony La Russa has not yet been cleared to return to managing the Chicago White Sox

Tony La Russa received clearance from his doctors to participate in Sunday’s ceremonies at Oakland Coliseum honoring his former pitcher Dave Stewart, the Chicago White Sox announced Saturday.

But La Russa’s doctors have not yet cleared his return to the dugout as an active manager, the Sox said. La Russa will travel to Chicago with the team following Sunday’s game against the A’s.

“Excited to see him and excited to hear that everything is well and he’s healthy,” Sox acting manager Miguel Cairo said Saturday before a 10-2 victory over the Athletics. “Looking forward to seeing him.”

The A’s are retiring Stewart’s No. 34 in a pregame ceremony Sunday.

La Russa has been out since Aug. 30 when the team announced he would not manage less than an hour before the start of a game against the Kansas City Royals at the direction of his doctors.

The next day, the Sox said La Russa was out indefinitely and he would undergo further testing with doctors in Arizona.

“I’ve been here with him for two years (as the bench coach),” Cairo said. “I’m very excited to see him and I know the team is very excited to see him.”

La Russa is second all-time among major-league managers with 2,884 victories. The 2014 Hall of Fame inductee won World Series titles with the Oakland Athletics (1989) and St. Louis Cardinals (2006, 2011).

He managed the Sox from 1979-86, followed by Oakland from ‘86-95 and the Cardinals from ‘96-2011. He returned to the Sox last season.

The Sox, who have won nine of 12 since Aug. 30, are in Oakland for a four-game series that began Thursday.

After cruising to a 14-2 victory Thursday behind five home runs and six solid scoreless innings from American League Cy Young Award candidate Dylan Cease, the Sox won Friday’s game in dramatic fashion, scoring five runs in the ninth — four with two outs — to beat the A’s 5-3.

“I think as far as winning percentages, he’s the winningest manager in Chicago White Sox history, right?” Sox closer Liam Hendriks said of Cairo with a chuckle after Friday’s victory. “We’ve had Miguel obviously for the last couple of years that I’ve been here, and it’s been fantastic watching him.

“Obviously, we want Tony to get better and healthy and make sure we’re firing all cylinders, but Miggy stepped up admirably.”

Asked Saturday about the steps beyond Sunday, Cairo said, “I’m manager today and tomorrow is another day. I just go day-by-day.”
