In a report from MLB, Pena’s solo home run during Wednesday night’s Game 1 of the ALCS sent a middle-in slider 386 feet into the Crawford Boxes.

According to MLB, 30 managers and up to six coaches per team vote from a pool of players in their league, with the exception of their own players. The league also collaborates with the Society for American Baseball Research for 25% of its selection total.

Other notable nominees include former Astros SS Carlos Correa, Yankees Pitcher and Houston-native Jameson Taillon, and Dodgers’ RF Mookie Betts. Correa also won the Golden Glove Award in 2021 as an Astro.
