J.J. DillonGUEST
And the guy introduced him to me.
J.J. DillonGUEST
And his name was Charlie Manuel, who managed the Philadelphia Phillies.
J.J. DillonGUEST
And he said, I used to come watch you wrestle in Roanoke.
Jim CornetteHOST
Oh, my god.
Jeff FrancoeurGUEST
And I think it feeds off that, right? Your other starting pitchers see that.
Jeff FrancoeurGUEST
It reminds me a lot of when I used to talk to Cole Hamels and Cliff Lee about they would feed off Roy Halladay, right? When you would see Halladay coming and tell Charlie Manuel, this is my game.
Jeff FrancoeurGUEST
It's like, I want to do that the next night.
Jeff FrancoeurGUEST
So I think Chris Sale's been so good for that, for the Braves.
Ruben Amaro Jr.GUEST
I mean, when you think about it, there's not...
Ruben Amaro Jr.GUEST
Like, Charlie Manuel, his expertise was hitting, but he didn't really get that involved in the hitting stuff because he wanted his coaches to do their jobs and gave them the autonomy to do that.
Ruben Amaro Jr.GUEST
Sirianni, same thing.
Ruben Amaro Jr.GUEST
Like, what? He was supposed to be an expert and a genius in offense, right? But he has now sort of delegated that to others.

Ricky BottalicoHOST
Number one, Sosa, that was showing off, in my opinion.
Ricky BottalicoHOST
Why else would you stand at home plate thinking that you hit a home run, which really wasn't necessarily that close, in a sense? I mean, the one thing, and I remember Charlie Manuel used to say this, bust it.
Ricky BottalicoHOST
Bust your butt.
Ricky BottalicoHOST
And that was not busting your butt.
Jack FritzHOST
And if you're one of those people, hey, you might even be 16.
Jack FritzHOST
Three years old, there's no way you were locked in on... on Reuben firing Charlie Manuel.
Jack FritzHOST
So go look up the Charlie wah-wah bag and get a little bit sad.
Jack FritzHOST
Get a little bit sad.
Jim SalisburyHOST
Always would bump into him, talk baseball, and really an honor to know him.
Jim SalisburyHOST
And one time, after the Phillies won the World Series in 08, I was working at the Enquirer, and in really early February, about two months before spring training, I went down and spent a day with Charlie Manuel, and... know for some stories about the year after the winter of the world series and going into the new season i went to charlie's house in winter haven and we went out for ribs at this shack people's in auburndale and Joe McDonald was in there, and Joe sits with Charlie, and just to listen to them tell baseball stories and eat ribs, I mean, it was fantastic.

Tom McCarthyGUEST
He's probably, you know, one of the...
Tom McCarthyGUEST
he, he, one or two greatest managers I've been with between him and Charlie Manuel and Larry Bowa, uh, and actually Willie Randolph when I was with the Mets.
Tom McCarthyGUEST
Um, the one thing that he has done an- and they have done is that every month they kinda go over some of the stats that are floating around baseball.
Tom McCarthyGUEST
Hey, this is what defensive runs save show about what's going on at first base or second base.
