Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame unveils 2017 inductee class<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>St. Marys, Ont. \u2013 Two dominant ex-major leaguers, two trailblazing, grassroots leaders and a gold medal-winning national team will be inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in 2017.<\/p>\n

Ex-Toronto Blue Jays ace Roy Halladay and former Montreal Expos slugger Vladimir Guerrero will be honoured in a ceremony on June 24 in St. Marys, Ont., along with long-time Baseball Canada president Ray Carter (Nanaimo, B.C.) and legendary umpire Doug Hudlin (Victoria, B.C.), who will be enshrined posthumously. Canada\u2019s Senior National Team that captured gold at the 2015 Pan Am Games will also be inducted.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach member of this year\u2019s class has had a tremendously positive impact on baseball in Canada,\u201d said Scott Crawford, the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame\u2019s director of operations. \u201cI\u2019m excited that we will not only be celebrating the careers of two of the greatest professional players ever to suit up for the Toronto Blue Jays and Montreal Expos, but also two highly respected grassroots leaders and a gold-medal-winning national team that made history on home soil.\u201d<\/p>\n

The induction ceremony will be part of a series of events that will also include \u201cThe Opening Pitch\u201d reception which will take place in the offices of Miller Thomson LLP in Toronto (June 22), the Hall\u2019s 21e<\/sup> annual celebrity golf tournament and banquet (June 23) and an on-site festival sponsored by the Toronto Blue Jays (June 24).<\/p>\n

2017 Inductee Bios<\/strong><\/p>\n

Roy Halladay<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Born in 1977 in Denver, Colo., Halladay was the Blue Jays\u2019 first-round pick (17th<\/sup> overall) in the 1995 major league amateur draft. On September 27, 1998, in his second big league start, he carried a no-hitter into the bottom of the ninth and had two outs when Detroit Tigers pinch-hitter Bobby Higginson homered. Halladay finished the contest with a one-hitter in the Blue Jays\u2019 2-1 win.<\/p>\n

L\u2019intense lanceur droitier a acquis sa place r\u00e9guli\u00e8re sur la rotation des Blue Jays en juillet 2001 et il s\u2019est \u00e9tabli comme l\u2019as de l\u2019\u00e9quipe. L\u2019ann\u00e9e suivante, il a remport\u00e9 19 victoires et a men\u00e9 les lanceurs de l\u2019Am\u00e9ricaine avec 239 manches et un tiers lanc\u00e9es et une moyenne WAR de 7,4 en plus d\u2019\u00eatre invit\u00e9 au match des \u00e9toiles pour la premi\u00e8re fois. L\u2019ann\u00e9e suivante, il a am\u00e9lior\u00e9 ces statistiques, gagnant cette fois 22 d\u00e9parts, lan\u00e7ant 266 manches, compl\u00e9tant neuf parties et affichant une moyenne WAR de 8,1, tous des sommets dans la Ligue. Il est devenu le troisi\u00e8me lanceur des Jays, apr\u00e8s Pat Hentgen (1996) et Rogers Clemens (1997 et 1998) a gagn\u00e9 le troph\u00e9e Cy Young.<\/p>\n

Au cours des six saisons suivantes avec les Jays, Halladay \u00e9tait sans contredit le meilleur lanceur des Majeures. Avec 20 victoires en 2008, l\u2019athl\u00e8te de six pieds et six pouces rejoignait Roger Clemens avec deux saisons de 20 victoires ou plus dans l\u2019histoire de l\u2019\u00e9quipe. Au total, en 12 campagnes avec Toronto, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 le lanceur partant du match inaugural \u00e0 sept reprises (un record d\u2019\u00e9quipe), il a \u00e9t\u00e9 le meneur de l\u2019Am\u00e9ricaine cinq fois pour les matchs complets (2003, 2005, 2007, 2008 et 2009), trois fois pour les manches lanc\u00e9es (2002, 2003 et 2008) et a \u00e9t\u00e9 invit\u00e9 six fois au match des \u00e9toiles (2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008 et 2009). Il a quitt\u00e9 Toronto avec une fiche de 148 victoires et 76 d\u00e9faites, pour une moyenne de ,661, le meilleur de l\u2019histoire de la franchise. Il se retrouve en deuxi\u00e8me position pour les victoires (148), les jeux blancs (15), les retraits sur des prises (1495) et la moyenne WAR (48,5).<\/p>\n

En pus d\u2019exceller sur la butte, Halladay et sa femme Brandy louaient une loge du Rogers Centre et invitaient de jeunes enfants malades \u00e0 voir un match. Ils ont aussi fait don de 100000 $ chaque ann\u00e9e \u00e0 la fondation Jays Care. Pour son implication, Halladay a souvent \u00e9t\u00e9 le candidat des Jays au prix Roberto Clemente et, en 2008, pour le prix l\u2019homme de l\u2019ann\u00e9e Marvin Miller de l\u2019association des joueurs.<\/p>\n

After being dealt to the Philadelphia Phillies in December 2009, Halladay continued his dominance in the National League, recording 21 wins and leading the circuit in innings pitched (250-2\/3), complete games (9) and WAR (8.3) in 2010 to earn his second Cy Young Award. On May 29th<\/sup> of that season, he tossed the 20th<\/sup> perfect game in major league history and just over four months later, on October 6, he became the first National League pitcher to throw a no-hitter in the playoffs when he blanked the Cincinnati Reds in the opening game of the National League Division Series. For an encore with the Phillies, Halladay posted a 2.35 ERA and topped the National League in complete games (8) and WAR (8.9) and finished second in Cy Young Award voting in 2011.<\/p>\n

In total, in his 16-year major league career, Halladay was selected to eight All-Star games, collected 203 wins and posted a .659 winning percentage, which ranks 19th<\/sup> all-time.<\/p>\n

\u201cToronto has been my home away from home throughout my career and even to this day. My oldest son now 16 was born in Toronto and considers himself Canadian,\u201d said Halladay. \u201cIt was a privilege to live and play in Canada for as long as I did. The people here were kind, supportive, respectful and always seemed to welcome me home even when I came to visit and sat in the wrong dugout. To be inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame is just another example of exceptional treatment I have received from Canada. I can\u2019t explain the feelings that accompanied goose bumps every time you showed me how much I was appreciated and once again after getting word of this honour Canada has given me, those same feelings to go along with the goose bumps. Thank you!”<\/p>\n

Vladimir Guerrero<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Born in 1975 in Don Gregorio, Nizao Dominican Republic, Guerrero boasted a tremendous combination of power and speed that, coupled with his strong throwing arm, made him one of baseball\u2019s best all-around players during his eight seasons with the Montreal Expos. Signed as an amateur free agent by the Expos in 1993, Guerrero became a regular outfielder with the club in May 1997. After he belted 38 home runs in 1998, the five-tool outfielder made his first of four consecutive All-Star appearances in 1999. Two seasons later, he became the first Expo to record 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases in the same season, only to outdo himself the following campaign when he narrowly missed becoming the fourth member of Major League Baseball\u2019s exclusive 40-40 club when he finished with 39 home runs and 40 stolen bases in 2002. That season, he also topped the league in hits (206) and total bases (364) and his 7.0 WAR was the second-best by a position player.<\/p>\n

Au cours de ses huit saisons avec les Expos (de 1996 \u00e0 2003), Guerrero a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9lu quatre fois au match des \u00e9toiles (1999 \u00e0 2002), a gagn\u00e9 trois fois le b\u00e2ton d\u2019argent (1999, 2000 et 2002) et a re\u00e7u des votes pour le joueur le plus utile \u00e0 son \u00e9quipe \u00e0 six reprises. Il d\u00e9tenait bien s\u00fbr l\u2019un des bras les plus puissants des Majeures et a domin\u00e9 la colonne des assistances chez les voltigeurs de droite \u00e0 deux reprises (2001 et 2002). C\u2019est lui qui d\u00e9tient les records de concession pour la moyenne au b\u00e2ton (,323), pour les circuits (234), la moyenne de puissance (,588) et OPS (,978).<\/p>\n

\u00c0 l\u2019ext\u00e9rieur du terrain, Guerrero \u00e9tat un excellent ambassadeur pour la formation montr\u00e9alaise. Il a donn\u00e9 quantit\u00e9 de billets pour une dizaines d\u2019organismes venant en aide aux enfants. Il parrainait aussi une ligue mineure et r\u00e9coltait de l\u2019\u00e9quipement pour les jeunes joueurs de sa R\u00e9publique dominicaine. Pour son d\u00e9vouement, il \u00e9tait le choix des Expos en 2001 pour le prix Roberto Clemente.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s la saison 2003, Guerrero a sign\u00e9 avec les Angels et est demeur\u00e9 l\u2019un des frappeurs les plus dangereux. En six saisons en Californie, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 invit\u00e9 \u00e0 quatre reprises au match des \u00e9toiles (2004 \u00e0 2007), re\u00e7u quatre b\u00e2tons d\u2019argent (2004 \u00e0 2007) et a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 le joueur le plus utile \u00e0 son \u00e9quipe en 2004. Il a poursuivi sa carri\u00e8re avec les Rangers du Texas en 2010, frappant 29 circuits et produisant 115 points et a \u00e9t\u00e9 invit\u00e9 \u00e0 son neuvi\u00e8me match des \u00e9toiles, a gagn\u00e9 son huiti\u00e8me b\u00e2ton d\u2019argent et a re\u00e7u le prix Edgar Martinez comme meilleur frappeur d\u00e9sign\u00e9 de la Ligue.<\/p>\n

In all, in his 16-year big league career, he batted .318, walloped 449 home runs (38th<\/sup> all-time) and recorded a .553 career slugging percentage, which ranks 24th<\/sup> all-time.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was surprised and excited to hear that I\u2019m being inducted,\u201d said Guerrero through a translator.\u00a0 \u201cI knew that I would need to wait at least one more year to join the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, but I\u2019m very pleased to join the Canadian hall of fame first, since I was given my first opportunity to play Major League Baseball in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ray Carter<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>N\u00e9 en 1942 \u00e0 Nanaimo en Colombie-Britannique, Carter a \u00e9t\u00e9 le pr\u00e9sident de Baseball Canada pendant 16 ans, de 2000 \u00e0 2016, ce qui en fait le plus r\u00e8gne \u00e0 la t\u00eate de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration. Pendant ses mandats, les \u00e9quipes nationales masculines et f\u00e9minines ont connu de v\u00e9ritables succ\u00e8s, r\u00e9coltant 13 m\u00e9dailles \u00e0 des comp\u00e9titions internationales dont les deux premi\u00e8res m\u00e9dailles d\u2019or gagn\u00e9es par les hommes aux Jeux panam de 2011 et 2015.<\/p>\n

Carter a collabor\u00e9 \u00e0 la cr\u00e9ation de l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale f\u00e9minine en 2004. Depuis, la formation nationale a gagn\u00e9 cinq m\u00e9dailles, dont deux d\u2019argent, sur la sc\u00e8ne internationale o\u00f9 elle se classe pr\u00e9sentement au deuxi\u00e8me rang.<\/p>\n

Il a \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 un leader dans la mise sur pied de diff\u00e9rents programmes, dont Challenger Baseball, une activit\u00e9 qui permet aux enfants pr\u00e9sentant des handicaps de pratique le baseball, le programme d\u2019initiation Rally Cap, qui fournit aux entra\u00eeneurs des outils d\u2019enseignement des comp\u00e9tences leur permettant de cr\u00e9er un engouement pour le baseball pour les plus jeunes, le d\u00e9veloppement du programme national de certification des entra\u00eeneurs, qui offre des formations standards pour les entra\u00eeneurs de tout le pays avec comme r\u00e9sultat le d\u00e9veloppement d\u2019athl\u00e8tes de haut niveau et un nombre important de Canadiens rep\u00each\u00e9s dans les Majeures au cours des premi\u00e8res rondes.<\/p>\n

Avant d\u2019\u00eatre nomm\u00e9 pr\u00e9sident de Baseball Canada, Carter en a \u00e9t\u00e9 le vice-pr\u00e9sident, en 1998 et 1999. Dans sa Colombie-Britannique natale, Carter a \u00e9t\u00e9 le pr\u00e9sident de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration provinciale pendant huit ans et du baseball mineur pendant deux ans.<\/p>\n

Pour son d\u00e9vouement sans rel\u00e2che pour le baseball, Carter a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9 Delta Sports en 2006. Il est aussi un membre \u00e0 vie de l\u2019association du baseball de l\u2019Ouest canadien, un membre honoraire de Baseball Colombie-Britannique et le r\u00e9cipiendaire de M\u00e9daille du jubil\u00e9 d\u2019or de la reine \u00c9lisabeth II en 2012. Son nom est si rattach\u00e9 au baseball au Canada que la coupe remise aux gagnants du championnat canadien masculin des 15 ans et moins porte son nom.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Je suis vraiment honor\u00e9 d\u2019\u00eatre intronis\u00e9 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du baseball canadien. De l\u2019\u00eatre en compagnie de Roy Halladay, Vladimir Guerrero, l\u2019officiel Doug Hudlin et l\u2019\u00e9quipe du Canada gagnant de la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or aux Jeux panam en 2015 rend le tout encore plus sp\u00e9cial. Je remercie le Temple et les gens impliqu\u00e9s pour cette merveilleuse nouvelle. \u00bb<\/p>\n

Doug Hudlin<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>N\u00e9 en 1922 \u00e0 Victoria en Colombie-Britannique, Hudlin a offici\u00e9 des parties de baseball dans sa province natale pendant plus de 40 ans. \u00c0 l\u2019adolescence, il \u00e9tait un joueur de baseball talentueux mais il n\u2019a d\u00e9but\u00e9 comme officiel qu\u2019apr\u00e8s s\u2019\u00eatre bless\u00e9 au dos en jouant au soccer en 1951. Deux ans plus tard, il a d\u00e9but\u00e9 dans les Petites ligues et en 1956, il officiait des parties de niveau senior masculin. Reconnu pour son sens de l\u2019humour et de justice, Hudlin est devenu l\u2019un des officiels les plus respect\u00e9s de la Colombie-Britannique et a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 pr\u00e9sident de l\u2019association des arbitres de Victoria en 1963. Il est demeur\u00e9 \u00e0 ce poste jusqu\u2019en 1974, lorsqu\u2019il a fond\u00e9 et pr\u00e9sid\u00e9 l\u2019association des arbitres de la Colombie-Britannique. Il y a \u00e9t\u00e9 le pr\u00e9sident pendant cinq ans.<\/p>\n

En cours de route, il est devenu le premier officiel venant de l\u2019ext\u00e9rieur des \u00c9tats-Unis \u00e0 travailler lors des Petites s\u00e9ries mondiales, en 1967, \u00e0 Williamsport (PA). Sept ans plus tard, il a de nouveau \u00e9t\u00e9 invit\u00e9, et devenait le premier officiel international \u00e0 vivre l\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nement deux fois.<\/p>\n

Hudlin a \u00e9galement offici\u00e9 lors de cinq championnats canadiens des Petites ligues (1966-67, 1973, 1981 et 1987), deux fois la S\u00e9rie mondiale des Petites ligues seniors \u00e0 Gary (IN., 1968 et 1974) et les jeux d\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 de la Colombie-Britannique en 1988. Cette m\u00eame ann\u00e9e, il a re\u00e7u une m\u00e9daille pour son d\u00e9vouement exemplaire envers la communaut\u00e9 en tant qu\u2019officiel sportif.<\/p>\n

C\u2019est en 1992 qu\u2019il a offici\u00e9 son dernier match de Petites ligues. Six ans plus tard, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du sport de Victoria et quelques ann\u00e9es plus tard au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e de l\u2019association des arbitres de la Colombie-Britannique. Il est aussi un membre honoraire de l\u2019association du baseball de Victoria (depuis 1983), du club des anciens des Petites s\u00e9ries mondiales (1984), de l\u2019association des arbitres de la Colombie-Britannique (1988) et des Petites ligues de la Colombie-Britannique (1989). Il est \u00e9galement l\u2019un des fondateurs de la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de l\u2019histoire des Noirs de la Colombie-Britannique.<\/p>\n

Il est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 le 5 janvier 2014 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 91 ans. Pour honorer sa m\u00e9moire, l\u2019association des arbitres de la Colombie-Britannique d\u00e9cerne le prix Doug Hudlin chaque ann\u00e9e afin de souligner le travail d\u2019un v\u00e9t\u00e9ran arbitre de la province.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was very happy to hear the news of Doug\u2019s induction into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and spent the rest of the day remembering that little smile that he had when something went well,\u201d said Judy Messerli, Hudlin\u2019s step-daughter.<\/p>\n

Team Canada 2015 Men\u2019s Senior National Team – Pan Am Gold Medalists<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Dirig\u00e9e par Ernie Whitt, l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale senior masculin du Canada a gagn\u00e9 la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or aux Jeux panam\u00e9ricains pour une deuxi\u00e8me fois de suite, un gain obtenu en manches suppl\u00e9mentaires contre les \u00c9tats-Unis le 19 juillet 2015.<\/p>\n

Dans un duel enlevant pour la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or, jou\u00e9 devant 5489 bruyants partisans \u00e0 Ajax (ON), l\u2019\u00e9quipe canadienne tirait de l\u2019arri\u00e8re 6-4 en milieu de dixi\u00e8me manche. Comme le stipule le r\u00e8glement international, les manches suppl\u00e9mentaires doivent d\u00e9buter des coureurs aux premier et deuxi\u00e8me coussins. Avec un retrait, Pete Orr (Richmond Hill, ON) a frapp\u00e9 un simple au champ centre et a fait compter Tyson Gillies (Vancouver, C.-B.) pour r\u00e9duire l\u2019\u00e9cart \u00e0 un point. Le lanceur gaucher am\u00e9ricain David Huff a tent\u00e9 de surprendre Orr au premier but, mais a rat\u00e9 la cible, poussant Skyler Stromsmoe (Bow Island, AB) au marbre pour cr\u00e9er l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9. Pour sa part, Orr a fil\u00e9 jusqu\u2019au troisi\u00e8me, o\u00f9 le relais du voltigeur de droite Brian Bogusevic a aussi manqu\u00e9 la cible. Sans perdre de temps, Orr s\u2019est dirig\u00e9 vers le marbre et a battu de justesse le relais de l\u2019arr\u00eat-court Tyler Pastornicky au receveur Thomas Murphy. Le Canada a donc gagn\u00e9 7-6. Une s\u00e9quence inoubliable qui sera deviendra l\u2019un des meilleurs moments de l\u2019histoire du baseball canadien.<\/p>\n

Cette victoire en finale \u00e9tait une revanche pour le Canada, qui avait perdu 4-1 contre les Am\u00e9ricains plus t\u00f4t dans le tournoi, leur seule d\u00e9faite des Jeux (7-1). Les Canadiens ont entre autres battu la R\u00e9publique dominicaine, Cuba et Porto Rico. C\u2019est un bon m\u00e9lange de lanceurs et de frappeurs qui a men\u00e9 l\u2019\u00e9quipe vers l\u2019or. Les lanceurs ont d\u2019ailleurs termin\u00e9 le tournoi avec la meilleure moyenne combin\u00e9e de points m\u00e9rit\u00e9s (2,34), domin\u00e9s par Chris Leroux (Mississauga, ON), qui a enregistr\u00e9 trois victoires, par Philippe Aumont (Gatineau, QC), qui n\u2019a donn\u00e9 aucun point m\u00e9rit\u00e9 et retir\u00e9 16 frappeurs sur des prises (deuxi\u00e8me meilleur du tournoi) en 13 manches lanc\u00e9es et par Jeff Francis (North Delta, C.-B.), qui a r\u00e9colt\u00e9 deux sauvetages avant d\u2019\u00eatre choisi le lanceur partant pour la finale et avoir lanc\u00e9 sept manches au cours de celle-ci.<\/p>\n

L\u2019offensive a \u00e9t\u00e9 dirig\u00e9e par Rene Tosoni (Port Coquitlam, C.-B.), qui a frapp\u00e9 pour ,433 et cogn\u00e9 un circuit de trois points en finale. Jordan Lennerton (Langley, C.-B.) a produit neuf points (deuxi\u00e8me meilleur du tournoi) et Gillies a marqu\u00e9 lui-m\u00eame neuf fois (deuxi\u00e8me meilleur du tournoi).<\/p>\n

\u00ab Gagner la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or aux Jeux panam pour la deuxi\u00e8me fois de suite, devant nos partisans et de la mani\u00e8re dont nous l\u2019avons fait est quelque chose que je n\u2019oublierai jamais, a dit Whitt. C\u2019est un honneur de faire partie d\u2019une \u00e9quipe intronis\u00e9e au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du baseball canadien et j\u2019ai h\u00e2te de prendre part aux festivit\u00e9s en juin. \u00bb<\/p>\n

Greg Hamilton, directeur des \u00e9quipes nationales chez Baseball Canada, qui \u00e9tait entra\u00eeneur lors du tournoi, partage son opinion :<\/p>\n

\u00ab Le Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du baseball canadien a intronis\u00e9 des gens qui ont eu un v\u00e9ritable impact sur le baseball au pays et d\u2019en faire partie aujourd\u2019hui, c\u2019est tout un honneur. \u00bb<\/p>\n
