In recent years, the World Series has seen award-worthy performances from top talents like Freddie Freeman, Corey Seager (for two different teams!), Stephen Strasburg and George Springer. We also saw Steve Pearce take home the hardware in 2018,

Shohei Ohtani's insane Game 4 performance helped the Dodgers advance to the World Series but the NLCS MVP reminded LA that it was a team win.

Meanwhile, on the mound, Ohtani just kept stomping on the Brewers. He finished with 10 strikeouts, three walks, two hits allowed and zero runs against one of MLB's peskiest lineups. He featured a seven-pitch mix, according to Baseball Savant, and topped out on that 100.3-mph fastball to Chourio. Even by itself, that's a star-level performance.

Ohtani and Guerrero Jr. are unsurprisingly the favorites to take home the World Series MVP award. Along with them, reigning World Series MVP Freddie Freeman, George Springer, Blake Snell, Teoscar Hernández, Mookie Betts, Alejandro Kirk, Daulton Varsho and Will Smith make up the rest of the top- 10 favorites to win the award.

Ohtani was named MVP of the team’s NLCS series against the Milwaukee Brewers after producing one of the greatest playoff games in MLB history during Game 4. The 31-year-old sensation homered three times from the plate and also struck out 10 batters from the hill, even sending his Dodgers teammates into total disbelief with the performance.
