My Guy: Rene Lachemann

Who says a “guy” has to be a player?

Rene Lachemann is the definition of a baseball lifer. Holding a position in the game for over 50 years as a player, coach or manager, Lachemann represented a style of baseball that may not be seen again, and his mannerisms and sense of humor left a lasting impact on many a fan of the sport.

It seems predestined that Rene would be a seamhead, as his brothers Bill and Marcel also enjoyed long careers in and around MLB. A lineage like that included “Lach,” who himself carried a bevy of different titles.
