(1957–58, 1967–69) and manager of 11 minor-league affiliates (1959–66, 1970–73). After that, he served as a scout and as a roving minor-league instructor for the Phillies (1974–mid-1980s). Notably, ninety of the players he managed or coached eventually played in the major leagues, including Mike Schmidt, Ferguson Jenkins, Greg Luzinski and Bob Boone. Seminick helped to convert Boone from a third baseman to one of the best defensive catchers in baseball. In the 1990s, Seminick served as a catching instructor for Philadelphia in spring training and in the Florida Instructional League. Andy Seminick died in Palm Bay, Florida, at 83 years of age.
