STATS: First time in MLB history MVP pitchers (Season/World Series) will face each other
Dodgers @ Giants, Kershaw vs. Bumgarner
I found this surprising -- I would have bet it had happened by now.
A marquee matchup is on tap for Wednesday night between reigning NL MVP and Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw and World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner in a likely duel of top left-handers. It marks the fourth time they have met and first since Sept. 13, 2013. It’s the first time the reigning regular-season MVP goes opposite the World Series MVP in a starting pitching matchup, according to STATS. http://kfwbam.com/2015/04/22/dodgers-have-7-game-winning-streak-snapped-by-giants/
