Eight players earned their first career Gold Glove award while New York Yankees pitcher Max Fried, Cleveland Guardians left fielder Steven Kwan and Chicago Cubs left fielder Ian Happ each won their fourth career Gold Gloves when this season’s winners were announced Sunday night.
Fried becomes the fourth Yankee pitcher to win a Gold Glove, the first since Mike Mussina in 2008. He won three consecutive Gold Gloves with the Atlanta Braves between 2020-22.
Kwan’s streak of four straight Gold Gloves in as many major league seasons is the third-longest streak to begin a career in history, trailing only Ichiro Suzuki and Nolan Arenado, who each began their careers with 10 consecutive Gold Glove Awards.
