    The Boston Red Sox Monday, November 5, 2018 * The Boston Globe Mookie Betts, Jackie Bradley Jr., and Ian Kinsler win Gold Glove awards Peter Abraham Jackie Bradley Jr. didn’t need a Gold Glove to be recognized as one of the best center fielders in the major leagues. Red Sox fans have known that for several years. But Bradley certainly did deserve one and it finally came his away on Sunday night. Bradley, right fielder Mookie Betts, and second baseman Ian Kinsler were Gold Glove winners. The Red Sox and Atlanta Braves each had three. A finalist in 2014 and ’16, Bradley was selected ahead of Mike Trout (Angels) and Adam Engel (White Sox) in voting done by managers and coaches. Bradley was second among MLB center fielders with an 8.7 ultimate zone rating and tied for the American League lead with eight assists. There’s no statistic for improbable acrobatic catches but Bradley had a series of those. Betts won for the third consecutive year, the first Red Sox player to do that since Dwight Evans won five in a row from 1981-85. Betts is now one of seven Red Sox players to win three or more Gold Gloves. Betts led all right fielders with 20 defensive runs saved. He has 83 DRS the last three seasons. Kinsler, 36, is now a two-time winner. He also won with the Tigers in 2016. In 128 games for the Angels and Red Sox, Kinsler had 10 DRS, the most in the AL at second base. Andrew Benintendi (left field) and Mitch Moreland (first base) were finalists.

  • Babe Ruth's RBI Record with the Boston Red Sox (1914-1919)

    Babe Ruth's RBI Record with the Boston Red Sox (1914-1919)

    Babe Ruth’s RBI Record with the Boston Red Sox (1914-1919) By Herm Krabbenhoft Babe Ruth spent the first six seasons (1914-1919) of his major league baseball career with the Boston Red Sox. He was primarily a pitcher during the 1914-1917 seasons.Because of his phenomenal batting and slugging skills, he played most of his games as regular outfielder during the 1918 and 1919 seasons. Runs Batted In did not become an official statistic [i.e., recorded on the official day-by-day (DBD) ledgers] until the 1920 season. Therefore, there are no “official” records for the RBIs that Ruth achieved during his tenure with the Boston Red Sox. However, RBIs were recorded “unofficially” by Ernie Lanigan of The Sporting News from 1907 through 1919. Accordingly, in the first (1934) edition of “Daguerreotypes” Ruth is shown with the following RBI record for 1914-1919:1 1914 – 0 RBIs 1915 – 20 RBIs 1916 – 16 RBIs 1917 – 10 RBIs 1918 – 64 RBIs 1919 – 112 RBIs Total – 222 RBIs However, over the years other numbers for Ruth’s RBIs have appeared in different publications or on Internet websites. I have not seen any explanation or justification for the changes. Here is a chart listing the minimum and maximum numbers of RBIs for Ruth that have been reported; also included are the RBI numbers currently (September 24, 2012) shown on the official website of Major League Baseball (MLB.com): Babe Ruth’s RBI Record (1914-1919) Year RBIs RBIs RBIs Fewest Most MLB.com 1914 0 2 2 1915 20 21 21 1916 15 16 15 1917 10 12 12 1918 64 66 66 1919 112 114 114 Total 221 231 230 To my knowledge, when I initiated my research effort (in the Spring-2012), there was no presentation of Ruth’s RBI record on a day-by-day (game-by-game) basis for his 1914-1919 seasons.
