2020 ALDS MVP: Los Angeles v. Washington

The 2020 Stroh's ALDS MVP Award goes to....

CF CAL BAKER, LA. Round of Applause!

The Stroh's MVP, Cal Baker, had a total of 3 hits in this Mountain West matchup. He had a line of .176/.364/.529, 2 HR, 6 RBI. Many fans who might just peruse the summary statistics are probably shocked that Baker was able to claim the MVP. However, two of his three hits were likely the most important of the series. In Game 2, with Washington up 1-0 in the series, Baker drilled a Johnny Evans fastball 427 feet  for a 2-run HR in the top of the 1st. LA would never relinquish the lead and win 3-1. Finally, in Game 5 Baker hit a Grand Slam in the bottom of the 8th to propel LA to an 8-6 win and to seal the deal in the series 4-1. Baker's momentous HRs were the highlights of an otherwise pretty bleak and unexciting series. Stay thirsty for Stroh's, Cal!
