Fails WP:NBASE. While minor league baseballers can be notable, and he received lots of piecemeal coverage (as reflected by the last no consensus, which no consensused on the grounds of non-significant coverage), I don't think WP:GNG is met here. SportingFlyer  T · C  09:30, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: I'm not wholly convinced by that keep argument considering it asserts sourcing without presenting any, but let's see if anyone else finds some.
 * Delete Like I said the first time, there is some coverage but it is all routine in nature, not in-depth as required for GNG. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:01, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Simply not possible Basso managed for 10+ years, including six years at Double-A and Triple-A, and didn't receive enough media coverage to pass GNG. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 18:56, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete. The coverage I'm seeing from Newspapers.com is basically at best brief quotes from Basso on his players and mentions of him as manager. There's maybe one article with some depth from May 1991 in the Wichita Eagle, although it's pretty local coverage. And anyway, one is not enough for GNG. JoelleJay (talk) 01:15, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete News coverage and sources are not enough to pass WP:GNG. CeltJungleSnake (talk) 08:20, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
