Charlie Manuel Booking Agent Details
Charlie Manuel is considered the most successful manager in Philadelphia Phillies history. In his 9 seasons at the helm of the Phillies from 2005-13, Manuel managed Philadelphia to one World Series championship (the first since 1980), two NL pennants and five consecutive NL east titles between 2007-11. Manuel set Phillies records with most wins in a single season (102) and most wins ever by a Phillies manager (780). Manuel was one of only two managers in NL history (Atlanta’s Bobby Cox being the other) to win five straight division titles since divisional play began in 1969. Philadelphia’s NL East title in 2007 was the team’s first postseason appearance since 1993. In 2011, Manuel was presented the Dallas Green Award for special achievement by the Philadelphia Chapter of the BBWAA.
Manual also managed the Cleveland Indians from 2000-02 and compiled 220-190 record. In his first season with the Indians, Manuel became the first Cleveland rookie manager to post 90 wins in a season since Al Lopez did it in 1951. Overall, Manuel complied a managerial record of 1,000 – 826 and is one of only 64 managers in MLB history with 1,000 wins. Prior to managing, Manual played parts of six seasons with the LA Dodgers and Minnesota Twins before spending another six seasons playing in Japan. For his accomplishments in Philadelphia, Manuel was inducted into the Phillies Wall of Fame in 2014 and the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame in 2016.
