Madison Bumgarner, the 2014 National League Championship Series Most Valuable Player, won both this award and the World Series MVP in the same season.

TheLeague Championship Series Most Valuable Player (MVP)Award is given annually to theMajor League Baseball (MLB) players deemed to have the most impact on their teams' performances in each of the two respectiveLeague Championship Series that comprise the penultimate round of theMLB postseason. The award is given separately for a player in both theAmerican League Championship Series and theNational League Championship Series.^[1] It has been presented in theNational League (NL) since 1977, and in theAmerican League (AL) since 1980.^[2]Dusty Baker won the inaugural award in 1977 with theLos Angeles Dodgers, andFrank White won the first AL award in 1980 with theKansas City Royals. Twelve LCS MVP winners have been elected to theBaseball Hall of Fame:Roberto Alomar,George Brett,Dennis Eckersley,Rickey Henderson,David Ortiz,Kirby Puckett,CC Sabathia,Ozzie Smith,Mariano Rivera,Iván Rodríguez,John Smoltz, andWillie Stargell.

Three players have won the award twice:Steve Garvey (1978, 1984),Dave Stewart (1990, 1993), andOrel Hershiser (1988, 1995). Incidentally, all three of these players won their two awards with two different teams. Building off of this, Garvey is the only player to win NLCS MVP twice, Stewart the only player to win ALCS MVP twice, and Hershiser the only one to win in both leagues. Nine players have gone on to win theWorld Series MVP Award in the same season in which they won the LCS MVP—eight from the NL and one from the AL. Three players have won while playing for the losing team in the series:Fred Lynn played for the1982 California Angels;^[3]Mike Scott pitched for the1986 Houston Astros;^[4] andJeffrey Leonard played for the1987 San Francisco Giants.^[5] Two players have shared the award in the same year three times, all in the NL;Rob Dibble andRandy Myers for the1990 Cincinnati Reds, the Chicago Cubs'Jon Lester andJavier Báez in 2016, andChris Taylor andJustin Turner of the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2017.

Adam Kennedy won the2002 ALCS MVP when he hit three home runs in a single game;^[6] he had hit 7 during the regular season and hit 80 in his 14-year career.^[7]Nelson Cruz won the award in the2011 ALCS after hitting six home runs in the series.Adolis García won the award after having 15 RBIs during the2023 ALCS. From thepitcher's mound,Steve Avery threw16+1⁄3 innings without giving up a run in the1991 NLCS,^[8] andJohn Smoltz amassed 19 strikeouts the following year to win MVP honours.^[9]Liván Hernández won the1997 NLCS MVP after winning his only start and earning a win out of the bullpen inrelief; he struck out 16 in10+2⁄3 innings.Daniel Murphy won the2015 NLCS MVP after hitting home runs in six consecutive games (including the final two games of the preceding division series), setting a major league record for consecutive postseason games with a home run.^[10]Shohei Ohtani won the2025 NLCS MVP after hitting three home runs and pitching six shutout innings with 10 strikeouts inGame 4.^[a]

Liván Hernández (1997, NL) and his half-brotherOrlando Hernández (1999, AL) are the only family pair to have won the award.^[11] The onlyrookies to have won the award areMike Boddicker (1983, AL),Liván Hernández (1997, NL),Michael Wacha (2013, NL),Randy Arozarena (2020, AL) andJeremy Peña (2022, AL).^[12]^[13]
