Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton led the majors with 59 home runs this season, the most by a big leaguer since 2001. Stanton spent the final three games chasing the ultimately elusive No. 60, his quest ending with a ninth-inning strikeout in Sunday's finale.

"Sums up my year and the appreciation of me for the fans, the fans for me," said Stanton, whose 132 RBIs also led baseball. "Closes the book on 2017."
