Cardinals outfielder Stan Musial is named the National League Most Valuable Player. 'Stan the Man' led the NL in hitting with a .376 batting average and 131 RBIs but barely missed the Triple Crown when his 39 home runs total is one less than hit by Johnny Mize and Ralph Kiner, the league's leaders.
(Ed. Note: Stan Musial would have tied for the league lead with 40 home runs and accomplished the rare feat had a home run in a rained-out game counted in his season totals. - LP) |
