			The 1977 AL award winners were ... 
 
MVP: George Brett (KC) - .322/.377/.535, 28 HR, 109 RBI, 61.3 VORP 
CyYoung: Bert Blyleven (TEX) - 30-8, 2.48 ERA, 312.2 IP, 242 K, 91.8 VORP 
ROY: Mitchell Page (OAK) - .296/.396/.453, 16 HR, 89 RBI, 47.1 VORP 
 
The New York Yankees flew to a 109-53 record, good enough for a 20 game destruction the next nearest AL East team Detroit. The Texas Rangers, behind Blyleven's 30 wins, won the AL West with a 100-62 record by 8 games over 2nd place Kansas City. 
 
In a surprise, the Texas Rangers beat the Yankees 3-2 for the AL Pennant and would head to their first World Series!
