"I'd like to dedicate this award to three special co-workers," Hughes said in a statement. "The operations director of 670 The Score, Mitch Rosen, also the executive producer of Cubs Radio. And to my two very talented and congenial booth partners, Ron Coomer and Zach Zaidman. Those three men have a great deal to do with this award."
It's the 12th time in Hughes' career that he has won this type of honor -- nine times in Illinois and three times in Wisconsin. Hughes is entering his 24th season as the Cubs' radio voice and 37th overall as a big league broadcaster.
