I was 6 years old in 1988. For those that remember 1988, why did gibson get the nod over strawberry?

 

His numbers are crap comparatively. I thought for sure I'd find out that he was a center fielder when I first saw them. But no. Both played the corner.

 

Edit: probably the batting average. Too bad.

I think there was also an element of "How the Hell are the Dodgers in the playoffs" and "He's their other team leader" playing into that too.
