I think there were 2 last year and I read there have been only 10 in history of MLB.
But cannot find who the other 8 were.

Anyone know?

Thanks guys. I knew this group would have the answers. The baseball knowledge here rarely fails to come through.

I never heard of Kenny Hubbs so I looked him up on baseball-reference.

Only played one more year after being awarded that gold glove and rookie of the year award. His page says he died at age 22. That sort of thing reminds me how much I take for granted.

That is the #1 guy who I think deserves an ATG card.
