Charlie Manuel won his 1,000th career game as a manager on Monday. If he's going to get win No. 1,001, it won't be in the Philadelphia Phillies dugout.
The Phillies announced on Friday they've fired Manuel and replaced him with Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg on an interim basis. Manuel is the first manager fired in MLB this season.
General manager Ruben Amaro cried at one point during Friday's press conference and called Manuel 'a very important part of the Phillies history and our success here.' But Amaro said he recently told Manuel that the Phillies would not be renewing his contract for 2014 and, at that point, the two men agreed it would be better to start the transition now. The Phillies losing 19 or their last 23 games probably didn't help.
'It was an understanding,' Manuel said. 'I wanted to put the Philadelphia Phillies above myself.'
Said Amaro: 'Making this change is not easy for me — not easy of me personally or for the organization.'
Manuel, 69, didn't figure to be long for Philly given his age, that he's in the last year of his contract and that the Phillies have been a disappointment this season. They're now 53-67 and in fourth place in the NL East after their recent downturn, behind even the New York Mets.
'A new face, a new look, a new voice might help us,' Manuel said during Friday's press conference.

With Charlie Manuel seated to his left, Ruben Amaro Jr. broke down in tears after announcing he fired his manager.
It was that emotional for the general manager and many associated with the Philadelphia Phillies.
Manuel was let go Friday after a disastrous second half, ending the most successful run in club history. Hall of Famer and former Cubs second baseman Ryne Sandberg, the Phillies' third-base coach, replaced Manuel for the start of a 10-game homestand.
'You people may not know the relationship I've had with Charlie. He's a special person. This is difficult for me. I hope he stays in our organization,' said Amaro, who took over as GM after Manuel led the Phillies to the World Series title in 2008.
The 69-year-old Manuel, the winningest manager in club history, was in the final year of his contract and wanted to manage another two or three seasons.
'I never quit nothing and I didn't resign,' Manuel said, making it clear he was pushed out the door.
'I'm mad because they took the best seat in the house from me,' Manuel said, adding, 'I enjoyed every bit of it.'
Manuel had been a folksy presence in the Phillies' dugout since the beginning of the 2005 season. He wasn't a popular choice in Philadelphia when former GM Ed Wade hired him to replace Larry Bowa, but he became a beloved figure in a tough

Charlie Manuel's days of managing the Phillies are over.
Manuel has been removed as manager and replaced by Ryne Sandberg on an interim basis, the Phillies announced Friday afternoon.
During a news conference, Manuel made it clear that he did not quit and said, 'it's something they wanted to do.'
General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. himself made it clear that Manuel was going to be out at the end of the season anyway, so -- with the Phillies struggling so badly -- now was a logical time to give Sandberg his shot.
This ends a tenure of nearly nine full seasons in which Manuel was at the helm for five NL East championships, two National League pennants and one World Series title. He ends said tenure with a regular-season record of 780-636 and a postseason record of 27-19.
Including his three seasons managing the Indians, Manuel has a career record of 1,000-826. In seasons he has managed all 162 games, he has never had a losing record -- the 81-81 mark last season was his worst full season. That likely would have changed this season, as the Phillies sit at 53-67.
Manuel will turn 70 this coming January.
It has long been assumed that Sandberg, the Phillies' third-base coach, would replace Manuel as manager after this season, so the promotion doesn't come as a big surprise.
