He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) in 1969–75 and in Nippon Professional Baseball as an outfielder in 1976–81.

Manuel managed the Phillies to a championship title during the 2008 World Series. He now serves as the senior advisor to the Phillies General Manager.〔(Manuel hired )〕 ==Early life== Although he was born in West Virginia, his family was actually living in Virginia at that time, and he lived in Virginia throughout his childhood. He was born in an automobile while his mother, June, was visiting her mother. His father, Charles Sr., was a Pentecostal preacher, and the family lived in Wythe and Grayson Counties until they settled in Buena Vista when Charlie, the third of 11 children and the oldest son, was 12.〔 He became a four-sport star at Parry McCluer High School in Buena Vista, playing baseball, football, basketball and track and field, captaining the baseball and basketball teams. His first love was basketball and he had received scholarship offers in that sport, but his plans and his life would dramatically change just before his high school graduation. In April 1963, his father committed suicide due to being severely ill with diabetes and heart problems. Leaving behind a suicide note, he asked that Charlie – who was already married with a child – take care of his mother and siblings.〔 He turned down his basketball scholarship offers, including one to the University of Pennsylvania,〔(Manuel gets one last reminder that Mom's always right ) ESPN.com〕 to consider offers from the Pittsburgh Pirates, Detroit Tigers, Minnesota Twins, and New York Yankees, ultimately signing with the Twins out of high school in for $30,000.
