Fonseca, Lew

MLB first baseman, second baseman, and leftfielder; MLB manager;Following his retirement from baseball, Fonseca was an early pioneer in making highlight films of World Series and All-Star Games that played as newsreel footage in the movie theaters of the 1930s and 1940s. He later became producer for Major League Baseball at least through 1966, when he produced MLB's official highlight reel for the 1966 World Series between the Baltimore Orioles and Los Angeles Dodgers.

Fonseca remained involved with professional baseball well into his eighties. He was a hitting instructor for the Chicago Cubs until the age of 82 and was an exponent of line drive hitting sprayed to all parts of the field. Among his pupils were Rick Monday and Bill Madlock. In many respects, Fonseca's contributions off the field rivalled or even eclipsed what he accomplished on the field. -Baseball Reference
