J'ai ensuite pens\u00e9 que c'\u00e9tait un honneur d'\u00eatre intronis\u00e9 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du baseball canadien aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s d'autres grands joueurs. Je n'ai jamais jou\u00e9 au baseball pour les prix et les accolades, mais l\u00e0, c'est vraiment sp\u00e9cial. \u00bb&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>N\u00e9 \u00e0 East York (Ontario), en 1983, Russell Martin a d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al \u00e0 l'\u00e2ge de deux ans et a perfectionn\u00e9 ses habilet\u00e9s avec l'\u00e9quipe nationale junior avant d'\u00eatre choisi au 17e tour du rep\u00eachage de la MLB en 2002 par les Dodgers de Los Angeles. Il s'est impos\u00e9 comme le meilleur espoir du club en tant que receveur lorsqu'il a frapp\u00e9 pour ,311 et affich\u00e9 un pourcentage de pr\u00e9sence sur les buts (OBP) de ,430 en 129 matchs pour les Suns de Jacksonville (AA) en 2005. Cette performance lui a valu d'\u00eatre invit\u00e9 au match des espoirs de la MLB.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin a fait ses d\u00e9buts dans les Majeures avec les Dodgers le 5 mai 2006. Cette saison-l\u00e0, il a maintenu une moyenne de ,282 et frapp\u00e9 10 circuits en 121 matchs et a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 dans l'\u00e9quipe d'\u00e9toiles des recrues Topps. En 2007, sa moyenne s'est \u00e9lev\u00e9e \u00e0 ,293 et a r\u00e9ussi 19 circuits et produit 87 points, un sommet en carri\u00e8re, et a \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9 pour son premier match des \u00e9toiles. Il a \u00e9galement re\u00e7u un b\u00e2ton d'argent, un gant dor\u00e9 et le prix Tip O'Neill du Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du baseball canadien.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>L'ann\u00e9e suivante, il a de nouveau \u00e9t\u00e9 invit\u00e9 au match des \u00e9toiles. Il a termin\u00e9 la saison 2008 avec une moyenne au b\u00e2ton de ,280 et 13 coups de circuit en 155 matchs. Apr\u00e8s deux autres saisons avec les Dodgers, il a sign\u00e9 avec les Yankees de New York, cognant 18 et 21 circuits lors des campagnes 2011 et 2012 respectivement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Le 30 novembre 2012, il a sign\u00e9 un contrat de deux ans avec les Pirates de Pittsburgh. Lors de sa premi\u00e8re saison avec les Pirates, il a excell\u00e9 derri\u00e8re le marbre, se m\u00e9ritant les honneurs du joueur d\u00e9fensif de l'ann\u00e9e. Il a poursuivi avec l'une de ses meilleures saisons offensives en 2014, frappant pour ,290 et affichant sa meilleure moyenne de pr\u00e9sence sur les buts en carri\u00e8re de (,402), tout en obtenant son deuxi\u00e8me honneur cons\u00e9cutif de joueur d\u00e9fensif de l'ann\u00e9e.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apr\u00e8s la saison 2014, Martin a sign\u00e9 un contrat de cinq ans avec les Blue Jays. \u00c0 sa premi\u00e8re saison \u00e0 Toronto, il a claqu\u00e9 23 coups de circuit, un sommet en carri\u00e8re, ce qui lui a valu sa quatri\u00e8me s\u00e9lection au match des \u00e9toiles et a aid\u00e9 le club \u00e0 participer aux s\u00e9ries \u00e9liminatoires pour la premi\u00e8re fois en 22 ans. En 2016, il a frapp\u00e9 20 autres longues balles pour propulser une fois de plus les Blue Jays en s\u00e9ries \u00e9liminatoires. Au total, en quatre saisons avec les Blue Jays, il a frapp\u00e9 66 coups de circuit en 447 matchs.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin a jou\u00e9 sa derni\u00e8re saison dans les Majeures avec les Dodgers en 2019. Son \u00e9quipe se qualifiant pour les s\u00e9ries, il s'agissait d'une 10e participation au cours d'une carri\u00e8re de 14 saisons.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin se classe parmi les dix premiers Canadiens dans la plupart des cat\u00e9gories statistiques des Majeures, notamment premier pour le dWAR (16,5), troisi\u00e8me pour le WAR (38,8), quatri\u00e8me pour les matchs jou\u00e9s (1693), cinqui\u00e8me pour les points marqu\u00e9s (803), sixi\u00e8me pour les coups s\u00fbrs (1416), les doubles (255) et le total des buts (2262) et septi\u00e8me pour les coups de circuit (191). Il d\u00e9tient \u00e9galement les records canadiens dans les s\u00e9ries de la MLB pour le nombre de matchs jou\u00e9s (58), les coups s\u00fbrs (38) et les points compt\u00e9s (24).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the international stage, Russell Martin suited up for the Junior National Team in 2000 and for Canada at the World Baseball Classic in 2009. He also coached for Canada at the 2017 and 2023 World Baseball Classics.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Purchase an autographed Russell Martin baseball <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballhalloffame.ca\/fr\/produit\/russell-martin-signed-baseball\/\"><strong>en cliquant ici<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Follow us on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CDNBaseballHOF\">X<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cdnbaseballhof\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0et\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/canadianbaseballhofmuseum\/\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0et bonne lecture!<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":30894,"parent":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","featured":[],"induction_year":[752],"team":[115,159,40,170,32],"primary-position":[62,161,168],"class_list":["post-30869","hall-of-famer","type-hall-of-famer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","induction_year-752","team-la-dodgers","team-new-york-yankees","team-pittsburgh-pirates","team-team-canada","team-toronto-blue-jays","primary-position-catchers","primary-position-coach","primary-position-player"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Russell Martin - Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/baseballhalloffame.ca\/fr\/hall-of-famer\/russell-martin\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"fr_CA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Russell Martin - Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u201cMy first thought when I heard the news was man, I must be getting old.
