Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was named 2016 Coach of the Year by the Los Angeles Sports Council. He will be honored during the organization’s 12th annual L.A. Sports Awards on Monday, Feb. 27.
Roberts was previously named the National League Manager of the Year, selected head of Chicago Cubs skipper Joe Maddon and Washington Nationals manager Dusty Baker. Roberts was also selected NL Manager of the Year by Sporting News.
Despite at one point falling to eight games back of the San Francisco Giants in the division, the Dodgers played their way to an unprecedented fourth consecutive NL West title.
