Silver Slugger Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Silver Slugger Awards)
The Silver Slugger Award is made annually to baseball players at each of the fielding positions. The award began in 1980 and is given by Hillerich & Bradsby, the maker of Louisville Slugger bats. It can be thought of as the offensive counterpart to the Rawlings Gold Glove Award.
