One year after 13 players won their first Gold Gloves, 14 players took home the hardware for the first time Sunday night when Major League Baseball announced the winners for outstanding defensive play.
Royals All-Star shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. and Braves left-hander Chris Sale (pictured) headlined the 14 first-time winners, which ties the record set in 2022. San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman earned his fifth Gold Glove, the most among this year’s group of 20 winners.
