Allen Wins MVP and Finds a Home with White Sox
Dick Allen captained the Chicago White Sox to the American League MVP after skipping spring training. He led the league with 37 home runs and 113 RBIs, receiving 21 of 24 first place votes and becoming only the second Sox player to win the award. Allen played 148 of 184 games, missing six late-season contests as a reward and due to an ankle issue, while manager Chuck Tanner fostered the right climate for his success.
