Red Sox's Ellsbury, Cardinals' Berkman Win Comeback Player Awards

LANCE Berkman of the St Louis Cardinals and Jacoby Ellsbury of the Boston Red Sox were named winners of Major League Baseball's Comeback Player of the Year awards on Thursday.

Berkman, 35, who hit a combined .248 with 14 home runs and 58 runs batted in between the Houston Astros and New York Yankees in 2010, batted .301 with 31 homers and 94 RBI with the Cardinals in 2011 to help them snare the National League wildcard playoffs berth.

Ellsbury, 28, in his fifth season, posted career-highs in nearly every offensive category this season after being limited to just 18 games in 2010 due to injuries. The outfielder hit .321 with 32 home runs, 105 RBI, 46 doubles, five triples and 119 runs scored.
