It’s easy to pick the Mr. Octobers of Game 5 of the ALDS between the A’s and Tigers: Miguel Cabrera and Justin Verlander. Cabrera had a 2-run HR, while Verlander had a no-hitter into the 7th and more-or-less shutdown the Athletics all eight innings he started in.
So, for that, they get DOUBLE points, adding 6 points to their Mr. October scores.
And, starting with the LCSes, it’s five points for being a Mr. October!
