Hi everybody,It is Alumni Weekend down at the ballpark and former Phillies skipper Charlie Manuel was added to the Phillies Wall of Fame in a ceremony last night (August 9th) before the ballgame. Charlie managed the Phillies from 2005-2013. Among his accomplishments were 780-636 record as manager, most wins ever for a Phillies manager, best regular season record in Phillies history of 102-60 in 2011, five straight NL East division titles from 2007-2011, two straight NL Championships in 2008-2009 and the 2008 World Series. Manuel also managed two MVPs (Ryan Howard in 2006 and Jimmy Rollins in 2007) and one CY Young Award Winner (Roy Halladay in 2010). Congrats Charlie for a well deserved honor!
