Kershaw has shot at history
Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw is among the finalists for the National League's Most Valuable Player and the Cy Young Award - and in position to become the first NL player to sweep both honors since Bob Gibson in 1968.
Kershaw is joined by Pittsburgh outfielder Andrew McCutchen - the 2013 winner - and Miami outfielder Giancarlo Stanton as the MVP finalists, the Baseball Writers' Association of America announced on Tuesday.
Cincinnati's Johnny Cueto and St. Louis' Adam Wainwright are competing with the Los Angeles left-hander for the Cy Young.
