IPA Honors Top Glovemen for 2011
Making the play is the mark of great defenders. Spearing a liner, diving in the hole or crashing headlong into the wall makes no difference to these awe-inspiring fielders. Magicians they sometimes appear to be, showing up out of nowhere to rob a batter of a hit and to turn a hit into an out. Pitchers love 'em, batters curse 'em... and fans are sometimes speechless. These defensive wizards will collect their 2011 Golden Glove Awards tonight. This is the fourth time Chancey Quibedeaux and Hal Stevenson have been honored with a Golden Glove. Second-time winners are Rocky Fuqua, Chucky Gilton, Warren McDaniel, Bill Nilsen and Stan Czerwinski.
