Stan Musial League Golden Glove Awards

Dodgers Lead with Three Honorees

The 2005 Stan Musial League Golden Glove Awards were announced this evening at a black tie affair at the SML headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri. The Los Angeles Dodgers were well represented at the dinner with pitcher Chris Carpenter, secondbaseman Luis Castillo, and outfielder Gary Sheffield each taking home hardware.

"It is an honor to be selected for the award," an emotional Carpenter said after the event. "I dedicate this to the groundskeepers at Dodger Stadium for always letting the grass get a little high before my starts."

The rest of the 2005 Stan Musial League Golden Glove Award winners: catcher Jason Varitek, Houston; firstbaseman Brad Wilkerson, Montreal-Washington Nationals; thirdbaseman Scott Rolen, Chicago; shortstop Jimmy Rollins, Chicago; outfielders Aubrey Huff, Washington Senators and Mark Kotsay, Florida.
