From an AP story by Ronald Blum headlined “Corey Seager earns second World Series MVP, joining Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson, and Reggie Jackson”:
Corey Seager knows the illustrious names he’s next to: Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson and Reggie Jackson.
“I don’t think you can ever fathom that,” he said. “It’s a pretty special group to be part of. ”
Seager joined those three Hall of Famers as a two-time World Series MVP, hitting 1,270 feet of home runs and getting a breakthrough single that lifted the Texas Rangers to their first title with a 5-0 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 5 on Wednesday night.
