Fried becomes the fourth Yankee pitcher to win a Gold Glove, the first since Mike Mussina in 2008. He won three consecutive Gold Gloves with the Atlanta Braves between 2020-22.
Kwan’s streak of four straight Gold Gloves in as many major league seasons is the third-longest streak to begin a career in history, trailing only Ichiro Suzuki and Nolan Arenado, who each began their careers with 10 consecutive Gold Gloves.
Happ also won his fourth consecutive award after leading all National League players with +9 defensive runs saved.
The list of first-time winners included Detroit catcher Dillon Dingler, Twins/Blue Jays first baseman Ty France, Royals third baseman Maikel Garcia, Red Sox center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela, St. Louis shortstop Masyn Wynn, Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong, Giants pitcher Logan Webb and Marlins utility player Javier Sanoja.
The Platinum Glove awards, given out to the best defensive player in each league, will be announced Nov. 7.
