"Mickey picked up all the American League batting titles last year. The switch-hitting slugger's clean sweep included highest batting average, most home runs, most runs batted in, most runs scored and [highest slugging average]. Besides that, he was elected the Most Valuable Player by a unanimous vote! Mickey hit 27 homers in New York, 25 on the road."
