This marks Báez's first career Gold Glove Award. He is just the third Cubs shortstop to earn the honor, and the first since Don Kessinger earned the award in 1969-70. Along with Báez and Kessinger, Ernie Banks was honored with the Gold Glove at shortstop in 1960.
Rizzo remains only the third first baseman in franchise history to earn this award, and all three Cubs awardees have won multiple Gold Gloves. Rizzo joins fellow four-time winner Mark Grace (1992-93, 1995-96) and Derrek Lee, a two-time winner (2005, 2007).
The Cubs had five other Gold Glove finalists in 2020: Willson Contreras for catcher, Kyle Hendricks for pitcher, Jason Heyward for right field, Nico Hoerner for second base and Alec Mills for pitcher.
