Erie SeaWolves second baseman Jace Jung has been named a 2023 Rawlings Gold Glove award winner for defensive excellence.

He is one of nine recipients, and winners were selected for each position.

Jung handled 447 total chances and had a hand in 62 double plays in 109 games for High-A West Michigan and Double-A Erie, posting a .993 fielding percentage.

The 23 year old was selected by the Detroit Tigers in the first round (12th overall) of the 2022 MLB Draft out of Texas Tech University.

Each player will receive his own Rawlings Gold Glove award, which is modeled after the iconic award given to Major League Baseball’s top defensive players, during the 2024 season.
