The Baseball World Series MVP is awarded to the player who contributes most to his team's success during the World Series Championships.

The award was first given in 1955. It was originally given by the editors of SPORT magazine, but is now decided by the opinions of a combination of fan voting, media members and Major League Baseball officials.
