Manny Ramirez came up with a novel plan for spending his share of the postseason kitty. “My whole share is going to the groundskeeper who had to fix what I did to left field,” Ramirez giggled of the turf he unearthed while committing an error in Game 1. (Link)
One thing I love about Manny that seems to infuriate many (hmm - bad pun) is that he’s unflappable. Screw up defensively one game? Okay, make a great outfield assist to make up for it. Not batting runners in? Here’s a long homer. And yet he’s been consistent: he’s had a hit in every game this postseason, and if he hits tomorrow will tie the record for most consecutive postseason games with a hit (as a poorly edited ProJo bit notes).
