World Series MVP
The World Series MVP award is given to the most valuable player in the World Series, Major League Baseball’s championship series. The award was first given in 1955, and has been awarded every year since 1961.
The award is voted on by a panel of baseball writers and broadcasters. The voters are asked to consider the player’s performance in the World Series, as well as their overall contributions to their team’s success.
Some of the most famous World Series MVPs include:
