Aaron Nola finishes 4th in NL Cy Young Award voting

Miami Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara became the first pitcher since the Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw in 2014 to take home all 30 first place votes to win the National League Cy Young Award.

While he was not named one of three NL finalists, Phillies pitcher Aaron Nola did quite well in the voting.

Nola finished fourth with 48 total points, including five second-place votes and six third-place votes. He finished ahead of the likes of Zac Gallen, Carlos Rodón and Corbin Burnes. The two voting members of the Philadelphia chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America, Ryan Fagan of The Sporting News and Jayson Stark of The Athletic, each gave Nola a fifth-place vote.
