UNDATED (AP Oct 30, 2013) – There are a host of first-time Gold Glove winners this year.
Toronto pitcher R.A. Dickey has captured his first Gold Glove, as have Kansas City catcher Salvatore Perez, Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer and Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado. The first-timers on the National League side are Arizona first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, Atlanta shortstop Andrelton Simmons, Colorado third baseman Nolan Arenado and Milwaukee center fielder Carlos Gomez.
Left fielder Alex Gordon was the third Royal named to the American League Gold Glove squad. The Orioles also have three Gold Glove winners after center fielder Adam Jones and shortstop J.J. Hardy were so honored. They are joined by Boston second baseman Dustin Pedroia (peh-DROY’-ah) and Red Sox right fielder Shane Victorino.
St. Louis pitcher Adam Wainwright and Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina earned the hardware, as did Cincinnati second baseman Brandon Phillips, Rockies left fielder Carlos Gonzalez and Diamondbacks right fielder Gerardo Parra. It’s the sixth straight Gold Glove for Molina.
