Joe Bauman Home Run Award

The Joe Bauman Home Run Award, formerly known as the Round-Tripper-Award, is given to the minor league baseball player who hit the most regular season home runs that year. The award, first given in 2002, is named after Joe Bauman, who set a then-professional record with 72 home runs in 1954, while playing for the Roswell Rockets of the Class-C Longhorn League.

The Joe Bauman Trophy was inaugurated in 2004. It is presented by Musco Lighting at the Baseball Winter Meetings each December. The winner receives a check worth $200 for every home run hit.
