Manny, Just so you know . . .

Not everyone on the Red Sox was present and accounted for as the team celebrated their A.L. East title in the clubhouse and on the field in front of about 2,000 fans who stayed to watch the end of the Orioles' extra-inning victory over the Yankees that handed Boston the championship.

While some players -- notably Jason Varitek, David Ortiz, Kevin Youkilis and Hideki Okajima -- returned to the scene after having dressed and left the ballpark after Boston's 5-2 win over the Twins, Manny Ramirez was nowhere to be seen.

"That's okay," joked manager Terry Francona. "I'll make sure (today) that Manny knows we won."
