Proud daughter interviews her father in this exclusive "Sidewalks" clip

Born in Hahira, Georgia, three-time All-Star coach Jerry Manuel is a former player and current bench coach in Major League Baseball (MLB).

Between 1975 - 1982, Manuel was a second baseman for most of his playing career with teams such as The Detroit Tigers, Montreal Expos, San Diego Padres and Chicago Clubs. In 1981, he was the starting 2nd baseman for the Expos in their only postseason series victory in 1981.

From 1998 - 2003, Manuel was the Chicago White Sox Manager, who won both the American League's Central Division title and the Manager of the Year award in 2000. With the White Sox, he managed for 971 games with a record of 500 wins - 471 loses and .515 winning percentage.

In the 2005 season, Manuel was the 1st base coach for the New York Mets, then became the team's bench coach starting in the 2006 season. Mr. Manuel's name is usually mentioned as a potential candidate for managerial positions when teams are searching for a new club manager. 

In this exclusive on-line June 2007 interview taped at at AT&T Park when his Mets played against the San Francisco Giants, Sidewalks host Natalie Manuel speaks to her "hero" and father about the differences between player and coach, what role he enjoyed the most, the responsibilities between coach and manager, and what he hopes to accomplish in the next phase of his career.
