MLB Least Valuable Player

After the rest of your team worked so hard to get as far as it did, this award goes to the player who cost the team the World Series, either the World Series itself (for the World Series loser), or the previous league championship series. Capriciously, this goes to the pitcher who allowed score the difference-making run of the clinching game, unless there was some fielding error or extenuating circumstance on the play. It is theoretically possible that the award goes to a manager (intentionally walking in the difference-making run with the bases loaded). And the award goes to:

AL: Chad Bradford, Tampa Bay (gave up unearned run in World Series Game 5)

NL: Chad Billingsley, LA Dodgers (gave up the second run in the NL Championship Series Game 5)

They are both named Chad.
