Cy Young victory shocks 'King Felix'
ReutersNovember 19, 2010 8:03 AM
Seattle Mariners pitcher Felix Hernandez was a clear winner of the American League Cy Young Award on Thursday despite registering only 13 wins during the Major League Baseball season.
The 24-year-old Hernandez, nicknamed "King Felix," compiled a 13-12 record for the lowly Mariners (61-101), but led the league in earned run average (ERA) at 2.27 and innings (249 2/3) and was second in strikeouts (232).
The Venezuelan, who matched the lowest win total of any starting pitcher to have won the award, was named first on 21 of the 28 ballots cast by two writers in each American League city.
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher David Price (19-6, 2.72 ERA) received four first-place votes and finished second in the balloting, ahead of New York Yankees hurler CC Sabathia (21-7, 3.18 ERA) who claimed the other three first-place votes.
Hernandez was stunned when he received the call informing him he had won the award as the league's top pitcher.
"My mind was 'really? really? I win the Cy Young?' " Hernandez told reporters in a conference call from Venezuela. "I started crying and my wife jumped on me and my whole family started jumping around the house."
