Ramirez led the Red Sox to a four-game sweep of the Yankees -- highlighted by a walk-off home run on Thursday in a game they trailed by three runs heading into the ninth -- to give Boston a three-game cushion atop the AL East.
This is the fourth Player of the Week nod for Ramirez, who also received the distinction the week of July 24, his first time getting the honor in the AL. He twice received the honors in the National League in 2007 and '09 with the Marlins.
