Who owns baseball? Updated for April 22, 2013

I have decided to organize my tally for the title of Who Owns Baseball in a less chaotic manner. I had been listing all the winners in alphabetical order with the multiple winners up top.

But here we are in late April and already it is a laundry list that takes longer to read than the school cancellations on the radio when I was a kid.

 My explanation for “Who Owns Baseball” can be found here.

 There are four categories: American League Hitter, American League Pitcher, National League Hitter and National League Pitcher.

 At the end of the year, we will tally up who owned baseball the most individual days and see how it compares to the final MVP and Cy Young vote.

 Is it subjective? Sure.

But so are the MVP and Cy Young votes.

 On April 22, 2013, A. J, Pierzynski, Matt Moore, Buster Posey and Shelby Miller all owned baseball.

So let’s update the tally taking into account their heroics last night. 

AMERICAN LEAGUE HITTER LEADERS
Prince Fielder – 2 
Justin Maxwell – 2 

AMERICAN LEAGUE PITCHER LEADERS

Clay Buchholz – 2 
Yu Darvish – 2
