His base running blunder made me pull some hair out of my head, but his big, two run HR was incredible. This rookie is for real and that AB proved it. Street will probably win the award, but Cano has earned his props, mistakes and all. Street and Swisher don't have the pressure of NY to contend with. I really like all the A's rookies and I think Street should win the award becasue he has been amazing as a rookie closer.
This is the type of game we would have lost a couple of weeks ago. Seeing the crowd give Bernie his props was a great moment in the game also.
