dbpprop:abstract	Harold Clifton Lanier is a former infielder, coach and manager in Major League Baseball. From 1964 through 1973, Lanier played for the San Francisco Giants (1964-71) and New York Yankees (1972-73). He is the son of Max Lanier, a former MLB All-Star pitcher. In his rookie season Lanier posted a career-high .274 batting average for the San Francisco Giants and was selected for the 1964 Topps All-Star Rookie team. In 1968 Lanier led NL shortstops in putouts (282) and fielding average (.979). After that, he moved from second base to shortstop, and finally to third base. He also played in part of two seasons with the New York Yankees. In a 10-season career, Lanier was a .228 hitter with eight home runs and 273 RBI in 1196 games played. Following his playing career, Lanier managed in the minors and served as third base coach for the St. Louis Cardinals from 1981-85, including the 1982 World Series and 1985 National League champion teams. He then went on to manage the Houston Astros from 1986-1988 and had a 254-232 win-loss record. In 1986 he was named NL Manager of the Year by the BBWA and TSN for leading the Astros to their first Division Title since 1980 and the best record (96-66) in team history up to that point Lanier has managed in the independent Northern League for the last several years with the Winnipeg Goldeyes and currently is with the Sussex Skyhawks of the Can-Am League. The Sussex Skyhawks, coached by Lanier, won the 2008 CAN-AM League Championship 3 games to 0 over the Quebec Capitales. Lanier was also selected as 2008 Manager of the Year by the eight CAN-AM League managers and media representatives. Reports of a serious beaning Lanier sustained in 1965 leaving him with epilepsy are not true. He played 159 games that season, and confirmed in a radio interview in 2008 that the story was false.
