Brenton Doyle’s speed and a glittering array of highlight-reel plays turned into gold Sunday night.
Brenton Doyle of the Colorado Rockies makes the out against Miguel Rojas #11 of the Los Angeles Dodgers in the eighth inning at Dodger Stadium on Aug. 13, 2023 in Los Angeles, California. The Rockies’ center fielder won the National League Rawling’s Gold Glove, becoming just the second Colorado rookie to win the award. The other was third baseman Nolan Arenado, who snagged the first of his 10 Gold Gloves in 2013.
Prior to this year, only 14 big-league rookies had been honored with a Gold Glove since the award’s inception in 1957. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Doyle is the first National League rookie outfielder in history to win a Gold Glove. Doyle, 25, led all major league players with a 24.5 Ultimate Zone Rating, more than 10 points higher than the next closest player, the Padres’ Fernando Tatis Jr. . He credited veteran outfielder Charlie Blackmon, and especially his friendly competition with fellow rookie outfielder Nolan Jones for his steady improvement over the season.
“I was kind of shifted toward right field and hit a pretty scorching line drive just to the left of center field,” Doyle recalled. “But keep in mind that I was shifted over to right. And it was one of those where if I don’t make the catch, it might be an insider-the-parker because of how deep it gets in center there.
