3. Clemens, Pedro, Yaz
4. This one is tough...imma guess Joe Morgan
5. 7-7 in 11 inn.
Miller Park - Selig's home

I would of guessed Puckett, but the answer was passed my lifetime...There were 5 people to win the LCS MVP and World Series MVP in the same year...none from the American League and only one player that was not a pitcher who was that player?
