Saturday, September 29th, 2007: CAL Best Gloves of 2007 Chosen
Making the play is the mark of great defenders. Spearing a liner, diving in the hole or crashing headlong into the wall makes no difference to these awe-inspiring fielders. Magicians they sometimes appear to be, showing up out of nowhere to rob a batter of a hit and to turn a hit into an out.

Pitcher: Josh Rupe (Clinton Lumber Kings)
Catcher: Brett Martinez (Lancaster Jethawks)
First Baseman: Vince Rooi (Inland Empire 66ers)
Second Baseman: Michael DeJesus (Stockton Ports)
Third Baseman: David Munoz (Rancho Cucamonga Quakes)
Shortstop: Sandy Almonte (Bakersfield Blaze)
Left Fielder: Angel Avila (Visalia Oaks)
Center Fielder: Brent Johnson (South Bend Silver Hawks)
Right Fielder: Drew Davidson (Visalia Oaks)
