Frank Thomas won his first MVP, on the strength of a .317 batting average with 41 home runs and 128 RBIs. The Big Hurt was a large reason the White Sox would win the Western Division championship. Even rarer, his winning the award was by a unanimous vote of the Baseball Writers Association of America, grabbing 392 points. Paul Molitor of the Blue Jays was a distant second, at 209. The awarded netted Thomas a $100,000 bonus, and he enjoyed a repeat win in 1994. #whitesox #whitesoxfan #southside #
