The Hutch Award is given to The Major League player who "best exemplifies the fighting spirit and competitive desire." It is named after Fred Hutchinson and has been awarded every year since 1965.
The inaugural award was awarded to Mickey Mantle in 1965. Mantle was the spiritual and physical leader of The Yankees for the preceding decade, but in 1965, his body began to break down, and his performance suffered. Still, he soldiered on through the season and set an example for his team by playing through great pain. Therefore, the award committee decided he showed the fighting spirit and competitive desire that the award was meant to honor.
