Akron RubberDucks center fielder Greg Allen wins MiLB Gold Glove Award

While winning a gold glove in the major leagues is more prestigious, a minor league gold glove is considerably more difficult as Rawlings only awards one prize per position across all four full-season leagues in every organization's system.

But that didn't stop Akron's Greg Allen from claiming the title as the best defensive center fielder in all of minor league baseball.

Here's what the MiLB.com award announcement had to say about Allen's defensive prowess:

Akron RubberDucks center fielder Greg Allen recorded a .994 fielding percentage in 128 games as he made two errors in 332 chances.
