... MORE MANNY: You can read Ramirez', and his teammates', reaction to his one-for-the-ages catch in Krasner's notebook, which also tells us that J.D. Drew is feeling better, Coco Crisp and Julio Lugo aren't, Brandon Moss is working out in Florida as he recovers from his appendectomy, and that Jacoby Ellsbury is now 23-for-23 as a big-league base stealer. ...

... With that little matter of the no-hitter taking up much of the attention, we didn't get to comment much on Manny Ramirez's recent practice of getting fans into the act. First it was the high-five in Baltimore, followed by a throw to first to double off Aubrey Huff, then, last night, it was Manny giving somebody five after making a routine catch on a popup early in the game against Kansas City. Here's Bob Breidenbach's photo: ...

This could be one of the best “Manny Being Manny” moments we have seen in his career with the Boston Red Sox. He makes a great running catch, climbs the wall to high-five a fan and then gets the throw in to the relay man, Dustin Pedroia, who threw to first for a double play.

Manny Ramirez: Simply the Best!

Posted 5/15/2008 on The Slanch Report

Manny Ramirez is an athlete. Blessed with incredible instincts as a hitter, he can hit any pitch anywhere. His fielding is generally somewhat underrated. Sure, he sometimes makes absolutely boneheaded plays or takes crazy routes to balls occasionally, but he routinely will get a number of outfield assists because he has a strong accurate arm. Manny also has makes some great catches in the ...

Probably not, so let’s not get ahead of ourselves. In Game 1, Jeremy Guthrie calmed down after allowing three runs in the first inning to hold the Red Sox bats at bay in a 5-4 Orioles win. In Game 2 on Wednesday, the Sox were leading 3-0 ...
