Shohei Ohtani, a captivating free agent coming off another historic two-way season, was named the American League's Most Valuable Player on Thursday, becoming the first player ever to win the award unanimously twice.

Ohtani, whose two victories have come within the last three seasons, received all 30 first-place votes by the BBWAA even though he did not pitch for most of the last two months of the Los Angeles Angels' season. Corey Seager and Marcus Semien, the Texas Rangers' star middle infielders, finished second and third, respectively.
