The Sport Magazine World Series Most Valuable Player Award was originally given by the editors of Sport magazine and started in 1955. The award is now voted on during the final game of the World Series by a committee of reporters and officials in attendance. It is announced at the game and soon thereafter Chevy presents the winner with a new Corvette.
Did you know that 1958 was the first season where each version of the award went to a different player and 1955 was the first season where one player, Johnny Podres of Brooklyn, won both versions of the award?
