David Ortiz and the Giants' first-base coach make the case for a new set of weird Gold Glove awards

Since the implementation of the designated hitter in the American League in 1973, there has never been a Gold Glove Award given for exemplary defensive skills at the DH position, largely because designated hitters don't play defense.
