Trivia: Who is the only World Series MVP to play for the losing team?
Bob Turley
Sandy Koufax
Johnny Podres
Bobby Richardson
Correct Answer: Bobby Richardson
So why is this answer correct? : The 1960 World Series between the Pirates and Yankees was capped off with Bill Mazeroski’s Game 7 series-clinching homer for Pittsburgh. Despite Mazeroski’s heroics, the Yankees’ Bobby Richardson took home MVP honors, having driven in a record 12 RBI. He also received a Corvette for winning the MVP award but traded it in for a Jeep that could better accommodate his family. Richardson remains the only losing player to win World Series MVP to this day.
