Well tonights game is a pretty good duel here. Manny looked like he might have hit a two run home run but only got a single out of it. Earlier he gets thrown out at the plate on a play where he ran hard but made it too easy on the catcher. I can't imagine what that guy could do if he had that element of meanness in him to compete. The guy is one of the greatest hitters ever, but to think he maybe could have been better.

Beckett brought his A game tonight. I thought the AL Cy Young was a tough award to hand out this year as all of Beckett, Sabathia, Carmona, and Lackey have very similar numbers. But if you extend the post season play (which they don't) Becket is the guy.
