The annual awards:

With only a few rookies to choose from, Foghorn Bradley of Boston won the Rookie of the Year award over Barney Gilligan of Cincinnati.

The Cartwright Award was close this year, but J. O'Neill of Chicago took it home for the first time, with Bond of Louisville in second and Hartford's Zettlein in third.

For Most Valuable Hitter, it was a three-man race between back-to-back winner Cap Anson, Jim O'Rourke of New York, and Levi Meyerle of Chicago. In the end, Meyerle's pennant win proved decisive, as he narrowly beat out Anson to win his first MVH award.
