The 2023 Cleveland Guardians had many award winners and finalists for their performance on the field.

The team made history at the individual, duo, and even trio levels of players.

And now, another Cleveland trio has been found to make MLB history during the 2023 campaign.

This year, the Guardians’ trio of second baseman Andrés Giménez, third baseman José Ramírez, and left fielder Steven Kwan became the first MLB trio to each record at least 25 doubles, 20 stolen bases, and five triples in the same season since 1993.

Here is a breakdown of these statistics for each player in 2023:

Andrés Giménez

27 doubles, 30 stolen bases, and five triples in 153 games played.

José Ramírez

36 doubles, 28 stolen bases, and five triples in 156 games played.

Steven Kwan

36 doubles, 21 stolen bases, and seven triples in 158 games played.

The last Major League trio to accomplish this feat was the trio of Roberto Alomar, Paul Molitor, and Devon White of the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays.

Additionally, Cleveland’s trio is the third American League trio to each reach at least 25 doubles, 20 stolen bases, and five triples in the same season since 1918.

Giménez, Ramírez, and Kwan are the fourth trio in Cleveland franchise history to each achieve this statistical feat. No other American League team has done it more than twice.

Here are the previous Cleveland trios to accomplish what these three did this year:

1904

Bill Bradley, Elmer Flick, and Nap Lajoie.

1906

Flick, Lajoie, and Terry Turner.

1917

Ray Chapman, Braggo Roth, and Tris Speaker.

With three strong performances at the plate, the Guardians’ 2023 trio now joins some exclusive company in baseball history.
