Here’s a collection of Robert O. Fishel Award winners.  Each year at the Winter Meetings, the Fishel Award is presented to an “active, non-uniformed representative of Major League Baseball whose ethics, character, dedication, service, professionalism and humanitarianism best represent the standards propounded by Robert O. Fishel.”  The 2009 recipient of the award is Vice President of Public Relations for MLB Pat Courtney (center holding the trophy).  Jim Ferguson (seated to the left of Courtney) and Rob Butcher (standing, first from the right) are former Fishel Award winners who were honored while working for the Reds.  Ferguson was the Reds PR man during The Big Red Machine years, Butcher is the current Reds Director of Media Relations.
