Cliff Lee Wins AL Cy Young Award


Cliff Lee was one of the few bright spots for the Cleveland Indians this season.

Cliff Lee was recognized for it today as he won the American League Cy Young Award.

Lee went a major league-best 22-3 this season with a 2.54 ERA. He received 24 of 28 first-place votes and 132 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America.

Toronto ace Roy Halladay was a distant runner-up with four first-place votes and 71 points. Record-setting closer Francisco Rodriguez of the Los Angeles Angels finished third with 32 points.

Congrats to Cliff Lee on winning the AL Cy Young award.
