SAN DIEGO — When the Nationals locked up the World Series on Wednesday night, everyone was wondering who the MVP of the series would be. Would it be Anthony Rendon, Juan Soto, Howie Kendrick or Stephen Strasburg?
When Strasburg was named the MVP, he made San Diego State the first program to produce two postseason MVP awards in the same season. You may remember Aztec Kawhi Leonard brought home the MVP hardware when the Toronto Raptors won it all in the NBA Finals
Strasburg grew up in San Diego County and pitched for SDSU from 2007-2009 while Leonard played for the Aztecs from 2009-2011.
