Plus: Gold Glove Award winners announced
During a year that will be remembered for records falling and milestones being surpassed, those themes continued with the Rawlings Gold Glove Awards for 2022. The winners included a record 14 first-time recipients earning the honor for best defensive player at each position (the old mark was 11, recorded in both 2020 and 1958).
In addition, there were nine first-time winners in the American League, a record for most in a single year in one league (the previous mark was seven, in 1990 and 2020, both in the AL). This year's three rookie winners also set a new record, eclipsing the prior mark of two from 2020.
Without further ado, here are the 2022 Gold Glove Award winners. | |
| Only 10 players have hit seven or more home runs in the same postseason, and Bryce Harper and Rhys Hoskins are each one long ball away from joining them after hitting their sixth homers during Game 3. | | | | A young Phillies fan got a glove on Brandon Marsh's Game 3 home run, but was unable to haul it in. He got another chance at a souvenir though when right fielder Nick Castellanos later threw him a ball. | | |
| The Arizona Fall League features some of the top prospects in baseball, and eight of the top hitters will swing for the fences this Saturday in the league's inaugural Home Run Derby. | | |
| Live coverage from Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia begins at 3 p.m. ET, and resumes following the last out of Game 4. | | |
| Who were the first teammates to each hit six or more home runs in the same postseason? | |
