Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy has been named the National League Manager of the Year for the third straight season, according to reports from Last Word on Sports. The award recognizes Murphy's continued excellence in leading the Brewers through another successful campaign.
Murphy becomes only the second manager in MLB history to win the honor three consecutive times, joining Bobby Cox who achieved the feat with the Atlanta Braves from 1991-1993. Under Murphy's guidance, Milwaukee has maintained its status as a perennial playoff contender in the National League Central.
The voting results and specific statistical achievements that contributed to Murphy's selection were not immediately detailed in the initial announcement. The formal presentation of the award typically occurs during the Baseball Writers' Association of America's annual awards ceremony.
