Guardians Name Bo Naylor Roberto Clemente Man Of The Year Nominee | Newsradio WTAM 1100

The Guardians have named catcher Bo Naylor as their nominee for the Roberto Clemente Award, given each year to the player who best represents the game of Baseball through extraordinary character, community involvement, philanthropy, and positive contributions- both on and off the field.

Naylor served as the face of Guardians youth camps this season, helping to grow the game of baseball and softball across Northeast Ohio.

Naylor has also given time away from the diamond, working with the Cleveland Animal Protective League and visiting the Cleveland Zoological Society. Naylor also supports the Cleveland Zoological Society’s conservation efforts and spends time with animals that can accept visitors. Bo has been a big advocate for the Club’s annual beach cleanup, which was scheduled for August.

Naylor joins nominees from every MLB team. Vote for Naylor on MLB.com.
