Dustin Pedroia, Adrian Gonzalez Earn Red Sox Nominations for 2012 Gold Glove AwardsThe Red Sox are already looking forward to the 2013 season after a lackluster 2012, but some hardware might be coming the team's way after all this year.

Dustin Pedroia and Adrian Gonzalez are among those nominated for the 2012 Rawlings Gold Glove Awards, with the winners to be revealed on Tuesday night. The award is voted on by the league's managers and coaches, and the voters can't vote for players on their own team.

Pedroia, a two-time Gold Glove winner (2008 and 2011), committed only five errors this season in 625 chances, good for a .992 fielding percentage. Gonzalez was also nominated as a member of the Red Sox, despite not finishing the season with the team.

The Cincinnati Reds lead all teams with six nominations, while the World Series champion San Francisco Giants do not have a single Gold Glove finalist.
