Chicago Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward won his fourth career Gold Glove Award on Monday night during the Rawlings' Glove Glove presentation.
This is the third year in a row for Heyward to win this prestigious award. He is also the youngest outfielder in Cubs history to win the award. He struggled at the plate this season batting .230 with seven homers and 49 RBIs. However, his defense never wavered as he was solid throughout the season. For his career, he is a .262 hitter with 104 RBIs and 401 RBIs. This is the first time since 2005 that the Cubs have multiple Glove winners in one season with Heyward and Rizzo winning.
