The 2018 AL Cy Young Award winner and a noted gamer, Snell seemingly had the edge heading into the tournament. He tabbed himself as the starter for his Semifinal game versus Hunter Pence and prevailed with an 8-1 decision. Blake found himself down 1-0 early in the Championship game before a game-tying solo blast using Freddie Freeman, his third homer of the tournament. Blake was runner-up to Amir Garrett's squad as he squeaked out the 2-1 win.
