My Comment: Welcome to Fenway and to victory! Home is sweet!! The Red Sox had the lead at the end of the seventh and kept it for their first win of 2011.
MLB News: Former Boston Red Sox leftfielder, Manny Ramirez (Tampa Bay Rays), has abruptly retired after nineteen years playing professional baseball. MLB issued the following statement:
Major League Baseball recently notified Manny Ramirez of an issue under Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment program. Rather than continue with the process under the program, Ramirez has informed MLB that he is retiring as an active player. If Ramirez seeks reinstatement in the future, the process under the drug program will be completed. MLB will not have any further comment on this matter.
I am as surprised as anyone at this announcement, but for all he did while a member of the Red Sox, I wish Manny well for the future.
