Trevor Bauer Becomes First Reds Pitcher To Win Cy Young 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Nov 12, 2020 1:28 pm

Trevor Bauer has won the National League Cy Young award, the first member of the Cincinnati Reds to earn the honor.

Bauer beat out finalists Yu Darvish of the Chicago Cubs and Jacob deGrom of the New York Mets in the voting.

deGrom had won the award the last two seasons.

Bauer went 5-4 with an NL-best 1.73 ERA in 11 starts, helping the Reds reach the playoffs for the first time since 2013. Animated on the field and outspoken off it, the 29-year-old right-hander struck out 100 in 73 innings and led the majors with two shutouts, a pair of seven-inning performances on doubleheader days.
