NEW YORK (AP) - Jim Tracy of Colorado has won the NL Manager of
the Year award and Mike Scioscia of the Los Angeles Angels has been
selected for the AL honor.

Tracy became the second manager to win the award after taking over in midseason, joining Jack McKeon for Florida in 2003. Scioscia also picked up the AL award in 2002.

Tracy received 29 first-place votes and two seconds for 151 points in balloting released Wednesday by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Scioscia got 15 first-place votes.

Tracy was promoted from bench coach following Clint Hurdle's dismissal in May and led the Rockies to the wild card. Scioscia kept the Angels going after the death of pitcher Nick Adenhart, and they won their fifth AL West title in six years.
