Tommy Edman is one of the newest players in the Dodgers' clubhouse, but that didn't stop him from making an MVP-caliber impact against the Mets in the NLCS.

The “MVP!” chants echoed throughout Dodger Stadium when Shohei Ohtani came to bat in the eighth inning Sunday night. No surprise there. The Dodgers slugger has been serenaded with such chants for most of the season and will likely be a unanimous choice to win the National League most valuable player award in November.

After Ohtani led off the bottom of the first with a single to center and took third on Teoscar Hernández’s single off the center-field wall, Edman fell behind 1-and-2 in the count but stayed back on a 79-mph, down-and-away sweeper, poking a two-run double into the left-field corner for a 2-1 lead. “Manaea actually made a really good pitch with the backdoor sweeper,” said Andrew Friedman, the team’s president of baseball operations.
