Here's every award Belli won this offseason

January 16th, 2020

LOS ANGELES -- Recapping a player’s season is routine, but in ’s case, let’s take a look at his offseason -- particularly, all of the awards he’s won.

On Wednesday, he and Angels fixture Mike Trout were named 2019 Sportsmen of the Year by the Los Angeles Sports Council, which will honor the pair, along with UCLA softball pitcher Rachel Garcia, at the 15th annual L.A. Sports Awards Banquet on Feb. 20 at the Beverly Hilton. Bellinger will need to jet in from Spring Training to pick up the hardware.

That’s what he’ll be doing next weekend to attend the annual New York Baseball Writers' Dinner, where he’ll receive his National League MVP trophy. It’s a pretty legit excuse for Bellinger to miss the Dodgers’ annual FanFest, which will be held at Dodger Stadium on Saturday, Jan. 25.

Dodgers have won the MVP Award 14 times. Since 1957, when Rawlings Gold Glove Awards were first presented to the best defensive players, the only Dodgers to win both awards in the same year are Bellinger, Steve Garvey and Maury Wills. Bellinger also won the Silver Slugger Award as the best offensive player at his position, first presented in 1980. Bellinger is the first Dodger to win all three awards in the same season. Even Trout has never done that.

The 2019 All-Star led the club in almost every offensive category, batting .305 with 47 homers, 115 RBIs and 121 runs scored. He was voted onto the All-MLB first team and was the first multi-position winner of Baseball Info Solutions Fielding Bible Award in the same season.

FanFest information
FanFest tickets for player autographs, player meet and greets, the opportunity to take a selfie with a player, behind-the-scenes tours and other VIP experiences are on sale at Dodgers.com/FanFest. A portion of the proceeds from autograph and VIP experience tickets benefit the programs of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation (LADF).

Due to construction, this year’s event will be held in Dodger Stadium parking lots P and N (outside of Top Deck and Right Field Reserve). FanFest is free and open to the public, but digital tickets are required and can only be claimed at Dodgers.com/FanFest. Fans must also download the MLB.com Ballpark App on their smart phones, which is the exclusive way of presenting their digital tickets for admission. Parking is free, and parking gates will open for the event at 9:30 a.m.

FanFest features appearances and autograph opportunities from Dodgers players, coaches and alumni in addition to a live stage program, the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation’s Mystery Bag Fundraiser and "Yard Sale" -- featuring past promotional items, T-shirts and more -- and family-friendly activities such as batting cages, game inflatables, a rock wall, carnival games, video games, live music, photo opportunities and food and beverages. In addition, season tickets, premium tickets, individual and group tickets will be on sale during the event.

To allow fans the opportunity to maximize their time at FanFest, the Dodgers will offer a priority pass to give fans access to faster-moving lines at select popular activities and autographs. While supplies last, priority passes will be available for purchase at Dodgers.com/FanFest.
