Just announced on ESPN

Catcher: Patrick Bailey, Giants

Bailey's first career Gold Glove comes as no surprise. The 25-year-old led all catchers with 20 DRS while also ranking first in catcher framing, second in catcher's caught stealing above average and third in average pop time, per Baseball Savant. Bailey joins fellow Giants catcher Buster Posey (2016) and Austin Hedges (2017 Padres) as the only backstops with at least 20 DRS in a single season over the past decade.

Patrick Bailey is the first player in MLB history with a walk-off inside-the-park home run AND a walk-off grand slam in a season

(worth noting: Roberto Clemente had both in one on a walk-off inside-the-park grand slam 7/25/56, but not the separate Bailey has!)
