MVP of Yesterday (June 26, 2013): R.A. Dickey

A tough one to choose yesterday, as two pitchers (R.A. Dickey and A.J. Griffin) both had complete game 2-hit shutouts. However, Dickey had a higher Win Points Added on Fangraphs (i.e. he was more responsible for the win, which makes sense as the Blue Jays only won by three while the Athletics won by five), so I’m giving him the nod.
