Dave Lemanczyk played nine seasons in the major leagues for three American League teams, but for many more years the former player who was nicknamed “Tarzan” has been instructing ballplayers.
Lemanczyk brought his baseball expertise to Grant Park on July 7 as he offered up guidance and tips on batting, fielding and pitching to girls playing softball with the Hewlett-Woodmere Little League.
The right-handed pitcher played for the Detroit Tigers, Toronto Blue Jays and California Angles. He was an All Star in 1979 with the Blue Jays.
