Major League Baseball recognized last week's top performers on Monday by announcing the A's Sean Manaea and the and the Orioles' Manny Machado of the American League and the D-backs' Patrick Corbin of the National League as the Players of the Week presented by W.B. Mason.
Manaea was responsible for one of the season's biggest highlights by pitching the seventh no-hitter in Oakland A's history on Saturday against a Red Sox team that had won 17 of its first 19 matchups and averaged more than six runs per game in that span. Manaea struck out a career-high-tying 10 batters in the 108-pitch gem.
