The Seattle Mariners are in Detroit this weekend for a series against the Tigers with American League wild card implications.
Prior to the first game of series on Friday, the Tigers gave Miguel Two-Time MVP bobbleheads to the first 10,000 fans in attendance.
The first baseman, of course, took home the AL version of the award in 2012 after becoming the first player since Carl Yastrzemski to earn the batting triple crown, then became a back-to-back winner in 2013.
The bobblehead is Cabrera with both of his MVP Awards, one in each hand. There’s one small problem, however. The nine-time All-Star is holding the National League version of the award.
Oh boy…. Looks like Miguel Cabrera's bobblehead has him MVP of the National League. #Tigers #Fail @darrenrovell pic.twitter.com/7Si82xbWeA

You won’t get many arguments for saying Miguel Cabrera is the best hitter in baseball today. Unfortunately, that standing won’t get him the MVP in a league he doesn’t play in.
