(AP) -- J.J. Hardy thought he'd hit a home run, only to be robbed when Mike Trout made one of the most sensational grabs of the season. On Tuesday night, Hardy caught a break. The Baltimore shortstop won a Gold Glove, putting him among a group of nine players honored for the first time for their fielding excellence. "It means a lot to me," Hardy said. "It's definitely an award I always hoped to get and never really expected to get. I'm surprised and honored at the same time." Pittsburgh center fielder Andrew McCutchen, San Diego third baseman Chase Headley and Oakland right fielder Josh Reddick also were first-time selections. "I'm just happy I can pull it out for them and get the A's name even more out there," Reddick said.

I don't look at myself that way. I kind of look at myself as just trying to be consistent and steady. I never felt like people noticed."

This one means a lot, because switching leagues, it was different managers voting on it. I had to do my job to earn it."

I'm extremely happy about it. There's a lot of good competition out there, obviously, and I'm really surprised that ended up happening for me. So it's an exciting night for me."

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
