MVP 2nd runner up - Robin Yount, OF, DC Riots NAME AVG OBP SPC G AB H 2B 3B HR R RBI BB K HB IW SB CS Yount .321 .390 .502 162 623 200 29 12 20 107 106 64 80 10 4 27 7 The Riots had a pretty easy go of it in the regular season, wrapping up the pennant early and ended up tied for the best record in the league. Robin Yount certainly was a big part of that, finishing 3rd in batting average, 2nd in on base average, and top ten in slugging average, runs scored and runs driven in. MVP 1st runner up - Howard Johnson, 3B, Destinies NAME AVG OBP SPC G AB H 2B 3B HR R RBI BB K HB IW SB CS Johnson .295 .372 .579 162 623 184 52 10 35 107 115 79 130 2 2 37 8 Johnson put up some heavy stats in 1989, posting the 2nd best slugging average, 2nd best RBI numbers, and 5th best homer numbers. Johnson's combined on base average and slugging average were a good 50 points better than the 2nd best full time player. All culminating in a winning record for the Destinies and playoff contention right up the final week. 1989 CDBL MVP: Kevin Mitchell, 3B, Bulldogs NAME AVG OBP SPC G AB H 2B 3B HR R RBI BB K HB IW SB CS Mitchell .259 .324 .584 162 640 166 29 7 55 107 134 59 146 6 6 3 4 Kevin Mitchell wasn't a hitter in 1989 in so much that he was a force. Mitchell terrorized the league's pitchers this year, leading the league in slugging, easily leading in RBI (by almost 20), and leading the league in homers by 14. His 107 runs scored was tied for 5th best. And in the rock 'em, sock 'em Tiant division, where 4 teams were within 4 games of each other, Mitchell was the X-factor that propeled the Bulldogs to the pennant.
