Dave Roberts of the Los Angeles Dodgers became the sixth manager, and third in the last three years, to win the manager of the year award in his first full season as a manager.

The Texas Rangers’ Jeff Banister won in the American League last year and the Washington Nationals’ Matt Williams in the NL in 2014. The other three first-year winners were in the NL: Hal Lanier with the Houston Astros in 1986, Dusty Baker with the San Francisco Giants in 1993 and Joe Girardi with the Florida Marlins in 2006.

It was the third time a Dodgers manager won the award and the first time in 28 years since Tommy Lasorda’s victory in 1988. Lasorda also won in 1983.

Roberts was the only manager named on all ballots.

Ballots from two writers in each league city prior to postseason play are tabulated on a system that rewards five points for first place, three points for second place and one point for third place.
