Major League Baseball aired its first ever live awards show on Saturday night in Las Vegas, handing out hardware for the All-MLB team and the Hank Aaron Award. Comedian Roy Wood Jr. hosted and gave an interview with CBS Sports leading up to the show

Here was Wood’s opening monologue: 

Via Major League Baseball, “MLB introduced its first-ever All-MLB Team awards in 2019 to give a more comprehensive honor that covered the full breadth of a big-league regular season, complementing the All-Star Game selections that are awarded just past the season’s halfway point. Introduced in 1999, the Hank Aaron Award is awarded annually to the best overall offensive performer in each league.”

Here are the winners. Please note the awards are for the 2023 season, so it’s possible some players have changed teams during the offseason. We’re listing their 2023 team.
