Last out of the World Series had both league MVPs at the plate, one in failure making the out offensively and the other in victory getting the putout defensively. I don't know if that has ever happened before, but I'm guessing it hasn't.
Because I think both selections were so obvious to me, I wouldn't have been surprised if both votes had been unanimous. I could see how some writers could have voted for Trout, but Posey wasn't simply an offensive force. He was the leader of a first-place team on defense and evn in the clubhouse.
