Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson was named as the Manager of the Year for the National League.
Gibson received 28 out of 32 first-place votes en route to winning the award. Brewers manager Ron Roenick (three) and former Cardinals manager Tony La Russa (one) split the remaining four-first place votes and finished second and third, respectively. Gibson oversaw an incredible turnaround this season, leading the Diamondbacks from a last-place finish in 2010 to the National League West title. He was recently rewarded with a contract extension that keeps him with Arizona through at least 2014.
