Mookie Betts' first American League MVP honor has made history. As NBC Sports Boston's Evan Drellich notes, the Red Sox rightfielder is the first-ever player to capture a Gold Glove, Silver Slugger, MVP and a World Series title all in the same season.

Plenty of praise was heaped on Betts from around the league. There was, of course, his own manager . . .

As well as the other two AL MVP finalists . . .
