Get it while it’s hot, because it’s doubtful this will last long. So yeah, seeing Crawford win the All Star MVP for a catch instead of a timely hit and/or run was refreshing. It’s happened before, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it. The last non-pitcher to win the MVP without a RBI? Willie Mays in 1968, so yeah, it’s been a while. Speaking of “been a while,” when the hell is the National League going to win one of these suckers again?

Granted, it took Crawford’s robbing of Brad Hawpe to secure this year’s win — a streak that’s been going since 1996 — but damn, at some point, you’d think the law of averages would kick in, but nope. That little phenomenon apparently skips All Star baseball.
