Murphy Makes History in Milwaukee
Pat Murphy won the National League Manager of the Year Award on Tuesday. He guided the Milwaukee Brewers to their first World Series title in franchise history and became the first person to win the award in three consecutive seasons since it began in 1983. Murphy secured 20 first-place votes and 124 total points.
Walt Weiss of the Atlanta Braves finished second with seven first-place votes and 86 points. Don Mattingly of the Philadelphia Phillies took third with one first-place vote and 25 points. Craig Stammen of the San Diego Padres finished fourth with two first-place votes and 24 points.
Overcoming Obstacles for the Brewers
Voting takes place before the postseason starts. Murphy led the Brewers to a franchise-record 103 wins, topping the majors in that category for the second straight season.
The team faced roster changes and injuries during the year, including losing ace Freddy Peralta in a trade and missing Quinn Priester for the entire season due to an injury. Despite these challenges, Murphy managed the team to their fourth straight division title.
Venable Wins American League Honors
Will Venable of the Chicago White Sox won the American League award in his second year as skipper. He earned 15 first-place votes and 111 points.
Venable edged out Kevin Cash of the Tampa Bay Rays, who received 12 first-place votes and 98 points. Chad Tracy of the Boston Red Sox finished third with three first-place votes and 47 points.
