Yeah I got another laugh tonite, but he still hits the stuffing out of the ball so I will take the bad with the good. Threw someone out at the plate last nite too. Everyone runs on him. They figure he will throw it into the crowd but he has a good arm just can't field very good. Every game is an adventure in the field. Manny is great. Paul

Not to mention, on the basepaths

To be fair, I don't get to see many Sox games down here, but last year, the wife decided to watch game one of the Series with me. Not being much of a baseball fan (she actually associates Darryl Strawberry with the Dodgers and not the Mets, being a Southern Californian), she had never heard anything about Manny, and wondered why I referred to him as "Planet Manny". In the space of 5 minutes, he butchered two plays in the outfield, one being the infamous trip, and took a humungous turn around first, fell on his ass, and scrambled back to an uncovered base on his belly. Her comment: "Oh, now I see why you call him that"

I fallen in line Manny is Manny. That play he got turned around on was funny,but he threw out a runner, made a great catch to end the game,oh he also hit the game winning homerun.
