The 2022 American League MVP race is one for the ages, with Shohei Ohtani in one corner having the best two-way season since... his MVP campaign last year, and Aaron Judge in the other corner having one of the greatest right-handed hitting seasons ever. Peter breaks down how the MVP is awarded in the NBA, NFL, and MLB as well as a look at each league's most recent winners (1:28), how narratives come into play (14:29), three categories to break down how the award is voted on (22:29), and how Ohtani and Judge stack up in each (26:01).
