Manny gives Pedroia a Rolex for winning Rookie of the Year
Last summer, Manny Ramirez told Dustin Pedroia that he’d get him a watch if he won the Rookie of the Year award. Today, he made good on his promise.
Pedroia was probably imagining that he’d receive something similar to this water resistant beauty, but Ramirez outdid himself as he always does.
From Joe McDonald:
The Red Sox slugger presented the second baseman with a Rolex watch for winning the American League Rookie of the Year in 2007. Ramirez handed Pedroia a box and then hit it pretty hard with his bat, denting the box. When Pedroia opened it all he could say was “Damn!”
““He’s a great kid with a great heart,” said Ramirez, who also bought Pedroia a few new suits to wear on the road last season. “I love him. He’s got a great personality and I don’t care what he does on the field because, as a person, he’s such a great guy. You can talk to him and he’s always happy and working hard.”
If the Red Sox don’t pick up Manny’s option next year I will cry real tears. Is there anybody more likable in all of sports?
He’s the anti-Nomar.
