Baseball playing career
Major League Baseball Manuel played from 1969-1972 with the Minnesota Twins and in 1974-75 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, primarily as a pinch-hitter and left fielder. A four-sport star at Parry McCluer High School in Buena Vista, Virginia, Manuel's first love was basketball but saw a chance to earn more money as a baseball player. Manuel had offers from the Pirates, Tigers, Yankees and signed with the Twins out of high school in 1963 for $20,000.

Minnesota Twins minor league manager Ultimately, injuries -- including a vicious hitting (beaning ?) in Japan -- cut Manuel's playing days short. He returned to the United States to work as a scout for the Minnesota Twins organization before turning to coaching. As a minor league manager for nine years in the Twins' (1983-87) and Indians' (1990-93) farm systems, Manuel compiled a 610-588 (.509) record, winning the Pacific Coast League and International League championships in his final two seasons (1992-93). He was thrice named Manager of the Year (1984, 1992, 2005) and managed the IL All-Star team in 1993.
Cleveland Indians manager Manuel returned to the Majors as a coach in 1988 as the Indians' hitting coach (1988-89, 1994-99), where under his tutelage, the Tribe led the American League in runs three times (1994-95, 99) and set a franchise record in 1999 with 1,009 runs, becoming the first team to score 1,000 runs since the 1950 Boston Red Sox. The club also led the league in home runs in 1994 and 1995. From 2000 to 2002, he served as the Indians' manager.
Philadelphia Phillies manager Shortly after serving as manager for the Cleveland Indians, Manuel was hired by the Phillies as special assistant to the general manager. After the 2004 season, Manuel was hired as the club's 51st Manager, replacing Larry Bowa.[1] In his first season, Manuel and the Phillies went 88-74, only one game back of the Wild Card.

After starting the 2007 season with a horrible 4-12 record, Manuel and the Phillies had to battle countless injuries all season, including newly acquired pitcher Freddy Garcia for the season. Then injuries caused team stars Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, and pitcher Cole Hamels to miss significant playing time. Hamels led the pitching staff with a 15-5 record, while Jimmy Rollins had a huge season, including a MLB record for at bats in a season with 708 through all 162 games played. Even so, the Phillies were 7 games back of the New York Mets in the NL East on Sept. 12. But they rallied to win 12 of 15 while the Mets suffered an epic collapse, allowing the Phillies to surge into the playoffs with the NL East title for the first time since 1993.

In Game 2 of the NLDS against the Colorado Rockies, Manuel made the controversial decision to remove Kyle Kendrick in the fourth inning with two outs and the bases loaded and the Phillies winning 3-2. While Kendrick had given up several hard hit balls during the day, he had thrown only 66 pitches and had worked out of several jams. Furthermore, of the three runners on base, only one had hit the ball hard, and the previous batter, Seth Smith, had hit a slow dribbler. At the time, most fans at Citizens Bank Ballpark thought the move was a mistake, and booed loudly when Manuel emerged from the dugout. Kyle Loshe, who replaced Kendrick, had never in his career came into a game with the bases loaded. Despite getting ahead of Kaz Matsui 1-2, Loshe missed his spot and threw a low-and-in fastball to Matsui. Matsui drove the ball deep into the right-field seats for a grand slam, giving the Rockies a lead they would not relinquish. The crowd booed again, more loudly than before.
Howard Eskin Confrontation During the Phillies post-game press conference following the team's 8-1 loss to the New York Mets on Tuesday, April 17, 2007, Philadelphia radio personality Howard Eskin repeatedly questioned Manuel why he didn't challenge his players. Manuel lost his temper and challenged Eskin to a fight. Eskin, a controversial afternoon drive host on local sports-talk station WIP-610, has criticized Manuel since the Phillies manager's hiring three years ago.
