MLB History <\/strong><\/h3>\n

1965:<\/strong> Willie Mays is named MVP of the National League after a season in which he hit .312 with 52 home runs and 112 RBI. Dodgers pitcher Sandy Koufax finished second in the voting.<\/p>\n

1971:<\/strong> Joe Torre, who led the National League in average (.363) and RBI (137) is named MVP. Pittsburgh\u2019s Wille Stargell finished second.<\/p>\n

1975:<\/strong> The Kansas City Royals release slugger Harmon Killebrew, ending a 22-year career marked by 573 home runs, good for fifth on the all-time list.<\/p>\n

1987:<\/strong> Steve Bedrosian edges out Rick Sutcliff by just two votes to win the NL Cy Young Award. Bedrosian is just the third reliever to ever win the award in the National League.<\/p>\n

1992:<\/strong> MLB owners refuse to grant permission for the San Francisco Giants to move to St. Petersburg, FL.<\/p>\n

1997:<\/strong> Roger Clemens becomes the first American League pitcher to win the Cy Young Award four times.

Clemens won his first three Cy Young Awards with the Boston Red Sox in 1986, 1987 and 1991.<\/p>\n
