Rick Manning Biography

Rick Manning is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on September 2, 1954 in Niagara Falls, New York, United States. Richard Eugene Manning, born September 2, 1954, is a former center- fielder and current broadcaster of Major League Baseball (MLB). He played for the Cleveland Indians (1975-1983), and Milwaukee Brewers (83-1987) and has been a color commentator on Cleveland Indians telecasts ever since 1990.

Manning was traded from the Indians to the Milwaukee Brewers in 1983 after he had played five more seasons. Manning was a Brewers player and he scored a run in the 10th inning to win the Brewers’ 1-0 victory over the Indians. Brewers fans booed Manning because he drove in the winning run, but Paul Molitor was there looking to extend his 39-game hit streak. Manning’s walkoff single denied Molitor a chance to win 40 games, as he was 0-4 in the contest.

Manning caught Ernie Whitt’s fly ball on May 15, 1981. This was the last out of Len Barker’s perfect game. The Indians beat the Toronto Blue Jays, 3-0.
