Question about DeLucia’s MOP Award

[Bulldog from Birth]

When is the last time the CWS’ most outstanding player award recipient didn’t appear at all in the championship series? Has that ever been done in the era of a best 2 out of 3 championship series? That’s certainly a testament to how good he was in those first two games.

fairly sure that's a first, and DeLucia would have pitched in game 3 if the OU catcher had not blown the game

Willy B got it in 2021 after gunning down Texas and Vandy, that was a no doubter.
