Suzuki picks up 10th straight AL Gold Glove
ICHIRO Suzuki won his 10th straight Gold Glove for a full season of fielding excellence. Mark Buehrle won again.
Derek Jeter's selection is likely to set off another argument over whether the award is relevant anymore.
Rawlings announced the American League honors on Tuesday. Managers and coaches vote for players in their leagues and can't pick players on their own teams.
Also chosen were first baseman Mark Teixeira and second baseman Robinson Cano of the New York Yankees; third baseman Evan Longoria and outfielder Carl Crawford of the Tampa Bay Rays; Minnesota catcher Joe Mauer and Seattle outfielder Franklin Gutierrez.
The National League awards were to be announced late yesterday.
Suzuki tied the AL record for Gold Gloves by an outfielder shared by Ken Griffey Jr. and Al Kaline. The Seattle right fielder has won every year he's been in the big leagues.
The overall record for outfielders is held by Willie Mays and Roberto Clemente with 12 each. The awards started in 1957, so there's no telling how many Mays, Clemente or others might have won before then. Angels outfielder Torii Hunter's streak of nine in a row ended this season.
Jeter won for the fifth time at shortstop - at 36, the New York Yankees captain is the oldest AL shortstop to win the Gold Glove since Luis Aparicio was the same age in 1970.
Jeter was charged with only six errors and had a career-high .989 fielding percentage, both best among full-time AL shortstops.
But modern fielding charts and rankings consistently put Jeter in the bottom half of their ratings, with Chicago's Alexei Ramirez listed as the top-fielding AL shortstop.
For years, some fans have viewed the Gold Gloves as mostly a popularity contest.
Buehrle was an easy choice for his second Gold Glove - he became the first pitcher with multiple no-hitters and Gold Gloves on his resume. The lefty had a 1.000 fielding percentage in 50 chances this year.
