I had this t-shirt. I have no idea what happened to it. Here we are looking back to 2013 when David Ortiz was named the World Series MVP. Ortiz was on a different planet that Series. Always known for his ability to hit in the clutch, Ortiz took it to a new level that year. And that is not even counting his game-tying grand slam in the eighth inning of Game 2 of the ALCS.
Ortiz hit .688/.760/1.188 with two home runs and six RBIs. He notched eleven hits with two doubles and seven runs scored, and walked eight times. He struck out once. Yes, once. In 25 plate appearances. The Cardinals simply could not get him out.
A friend of mine, who is a huge Yankees fan, often tells me the greatest hitting performance he has ever seen was Ortiz in the 2013 World Series. It's hard to disagree.
