From MLB.com:

In a sense, Joe Torre has followed in the path of the baseball team that preceded him from the borough of Brooklyn 50 years ago, departing New York City to land in Los Angeles with the Dodgers.

But while the pinstripes have been packed away, Torre's contributions to spur on his Yankees in 2007 have not been forgotten. Torre has been selected as the Manager of the Year in MLB.com's annual This Year In Baseball Awards.
