The Best In Brief
Pujols Is NL’s Most Valuable
For the second time in four years, St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols is baseball’s National League MVP. Despite his team’s fourth-place finish and a strained calf that landed him on disabled list, Pujols hit 37 home runs with 116 RBI and a .357 batting average in his best-hitting season of his eight-year career. Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard and his 48 home runs finished second in MVP voting, flip-flopping the results from 2006, when Howard finished first and Pujols second. The American League MVP is announced Tuesday.
