    Street named AL rookie of the year

    Huston Street's efforts in helping save the season for the A's were rewarded again Monday when he was named the American League Rookie of the Year.
    Street, a 22-year-old closer, becomes the seventh A's player to win the award and the second in a row, following shortstop Bobby Crosby's honor in 2004.

    The Jackie Robinson Rookie of the Year Award is presented each year based on balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Street was listed first on 15 of 28 ballots submitted by two writers from each league city, along with six votes for second and four for third to total 97 points, based on the 5-3-1 tabulation system.
    Street with the sweep of all the rookie awards for the AL just like Crosby did last year!
