Background:

Each year the World Series MVP (Most Valuable Player) is selected from voting from media members, Major League basesball officials and fan voting.

During the last ten years the following positions have won the MVP:

Pitcher = 4 times
Third Base = 3 times
Shortstop = 2 times
Right Field = Once
Left Field = Once

Total of 11 because in 2001 two pitchers shared the honor.

Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source.

Question suspends on last day of regular season play.
