2024 Inductee Bios<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russell Martin<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in East York, Ont., in 1983, Russell Martin moved to Montreal when he was two and honed his skills with the Junior National Team before being selected in the 17th round of the 2002 MLB draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a strong rookie season with the Dodgers in 2006, he hit .293 with 19 home runs and a career-best 87 RBIs in his sophomore campaign and was honoured with his first All-Star Game selection, a Silver Slugger Award, a Gold Glove Award and the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame\u2019s Tip O\u2019Neill Award. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He followed that up with another All-Star season in 2008 and played two more seasons with the Dodgers before signing with the New York Yankees and belting a combined 39 home runs in 2011 and 2012. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On November 30, 2012, he signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates and proceeded to earn two consecutive Wilson Defensive Player of the Year honours. Following the 2014 campaign, Martin landed a five-year contract with the Blue Jays. In his first season with Toronto, he belted a career-best 23 homers to earn his fourth All-Star selection and help the club to their first postseason appearance in 22 years.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martin played 14 big league seasons and ranks in the top 10 among Canadians in most major league statistical categories, including first in dWAR (16.5), third in WAR (38.8), and sixth in hits (1,416). He also holds Canadian major league postseason records in games (58) and hits (38). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the international stage, Martin suited up for Canada at the World Baseball Classic in 2009 and coached for Canada at the event in 2017 and 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy first thought when I heard the news was man, I must be getting old. <\/em>My next thought was what an honour to be inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame alongside other greats,\u201d said Martin. \u201cI\u2019ve never played the game for awards and accolades, but this is pretty darn special.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jimmy Key<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in 1961 in Huntsville, Ala., Jimmy Key was selected in the third round of the 1982 MLB draft by the Toronto Blue Jays. The crafty left-hander rose through the team\u2019s ranks to make his big league debut on April 6, 1984.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1985, the Blue Jays\u2019 first division-winning season, the steady southpaw joined the club\u2019s starting rotation and posted a 14-6 record and a 3.00 ERA in 212-2\/3 innings in 35 appearances to earn his first All-Star selection. Over the next seven seasons, Key continued to be a top-end starter for the Blue Jays, registering at least 12 wins in each campaign.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His finest season with the Blue Jays was in 1987, when he went 17-8 and topped American League pitchers with a 2.76 ERA while tossing a team-leading 261 innings. For his efforts, he was named the American League Pitcher of the Year by The Sporting News.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four years later, he almost equaled his 1987 campaign, when he registered 16 wins and a 3.05 ERA and was named to his second All-Star team. In 1992, he notched 13 regular season victories and added two more in the World Series against the Atlanta Braves to help the Blue Jays capture their first championship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key ranks near the top in many of the Blue Jays\u2019 all-time pitching categories (minimum 1,000 innings pitched), including tied for first in ERA (3.42) and WHIP (1.20) and fourth in wins (116) and innings pitched (1,695-2\/3).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In total, in his 15-year major league career, that also included stops with the New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles, he registered 186 wins and finished with a 49.0 WAR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would like to thank the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and their Executive Committee for this great honour,\u201d said Key. \u201cThis recognition caps off nine great years that I played in Toronto for the Blue Jay organization. To be a part of the first professional baseball World Championship team in Canada is the highlight of my career.\u201d      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ashley Stephenson<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in Mississauga, Ont., in 1982, Ashley Stephenson was a member of the first Women\u2019s National Team in 2004. She excelled with the team for 15 seasons and helped lead them to seven medals, including silvers at the WBSC Women\u2019s World Cups in 2008 and 2016 and at the Pan Am Games in 2015. She was also a force on four bronze medal-winning teams at the World Cup (2004, 2006, 2012, 2018). Along the way, she was named Women\u2019s National Team MVP twice (2005, 2008).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After concluding her playing career, Stephenson became a coach and was part of the Women\u2019s National Team staff that led Canada to a bronze medal at the COPABE Women\u2019s Pan-American Championships in 2019. Three years later, she became the first woman to manage the Women\u2019s National Team when she was the dugout boss for their five-game series against the United States in Thunder Bay, Ont.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stephenson would make history again that November when she became the first woman to capture Baseball Canada\u2019s Lionel Ruhr Elite Coach of the Year Award. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, Stephenson was hired as a position coach by the Blue Jays\u2019 High-A Vancouver Canadians. She has returned to this role this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A highly respected ambassador for baseball nationally and internationally, Stephenson also served as a member of the WBSC Athletes Commission from 2018 to 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWow! Thank you so much. This was one of the best surprise calls I\u2019ve ever received,\u201d said Stephenson when informed she was being inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame. \u201cI played baseball because I love the game. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I\u2019d play for my country and have some of the experiences and opportunities I\u2019ve had. I hope girls and women see this as an example of what you can do through hard work, dedication and perseverance. The Hall of Fame is forever. I\u2019m so incredibly honoured to be a part of it!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rod Heisler<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in 1957 in Moose Jaw, Sask., Rod Heisler pitched in a record 14 international competitions for the men\u2019s National Team.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Canadian left-hander attended Bemidji State University where he earned All-Conference honours in 1978 and 1979 and was also named All-District in 1979.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His first national team assignment came in 1978 at the Amateur World Series. He would pitch for Canada at the same competition in 1980 and 1982. In 1982, he went 3-0 with a 2.35 ERA and was named the left-handed pitcher on the tournament All-Star team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two years later, Heisler started Canada\u2019s first game at the 1984 Olympics and allowed just two runs in 10-1\/3 innings in a loss to Nicaragua. He was also selected to Canada\u2019s 1988 Olympic Team but was sidelined due to an injury. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heisler also toed the rubber for Canada at three Pan Am Games (1979, 1983, 1987) and three Intercontinental Cups (1981, 1983, 1985). For his efforts, he was recognized with a Government of Canada Merit Award in 1988. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following his playing career, Heisler became a teacher and coached baseball at Notre Dame College in Wilcox, Sask. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2006, he was inducted into the Bemidji University Hall of Fame and 11 years later, he was inducted into the Moose Jaw and District Sports Hall of Fame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen you first told me that I was being inducted I was so thrilled. I assumed that it was our [1984] Olympic team nominated and the guys were getting called about the news. Then when you said it was me, that took me by total surprise,\u201d said Heisler. \u201cNot in my craziest dreams would I have put myself in any consideration for such an honour.\u201d   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul Godfrey<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in Toronto in 1939, Paul Godfrey played a crucial role in bringing Major League Baseball to Toronto. As an ambitious, young North York alderman in 1969, he paid his own way to Major League Baseball\u2019s Winter Meetings in Bal Harbor, Fla., to tell commissioner Bowie Kuhn that he wanted to secure a big league team for Toronto. Kuhn told Godfrey that he would have to have a baseball stadium in Toronto before they would even consider it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Armed with that feedback, Godfrey returned to Toronto with his sights set on creating a stadium. In 1973, Godfrey was elected chairman of Metropolitan Toronto, and on his first day in his new position, he promised he would land a big league team for the city and see that a dome stadium was built.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the short term, however, he needed a budget-friendly alternative, so he came up with the idea to retrofit Exhibition Stadium into a dual baseball\/football stadium. In November 1973, he convinced Ontario premier Bill Davis to chip in half the estimated $15-million cost to renovate the stadium. The resulting retrofit of Exhibition Stadium helped lay the groundwork for the ownership group of Labatt Breweries, CIBC and Howard Webster to secure a major league team in 1976. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eight years later, Godfrey was appointed to the Crown Corporation that was in charge of the design, construction and of selecting a location for what would become SkyDome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2000, Godfrey was hired as president and CEO of the Blue Jays, a position he would hold through the 2008 season.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highly respected Toronto native was named a member of the Order of Canada in 1999 and to the Order of Ontario in 2010. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I was very surprised and thrilled with the news of being inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame,\u201d said Godfrey. \u201cIt even brought tears of happiness to my eyes. Being inducted into this wonderful institution is one of the great honours of my life. I love baseball and joining this Hall of Fame is a thrill beyond belief.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Howard Birnie<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Born in Toronto in 1937, Howard Birnie has been involved in baseball in his home city for more than 70 years as a player, coach and umpire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his tenure as a baseball coach in Toronto from 1958 to 1988, he guided teams to seven city championships and one national championship with the Toronto Leaside All-Stars in 1964.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, Birnie has assumed countless leadership roles, including serving as president of the Leaside Baseball Association since 1973 and president of the Ontario Baseball Association in 1991 and 1992. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Birnie, however, may be best known as one of the country\u2019s most respected umpires. During his 34 years of calling balls and strikes, Birnie worked six national championships between 1979 and 1989, three international championships (1985, 1987, 1990) and two World Junior Championships (1986-87). He was also selected to umpire three Pearson Cup games, an annual exhibition contest between the Toronto Blue Jays and Montreal Expos.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recognition of his 50 years of volunteering in amateur baseball, Birnie received the Queen\u2019s Diamond Jubilee Award in 2012 and five years later, he was inducted into the Ontario Baseball Hall of Fame. He continues to serve as an appointed director of the OBA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was incredibly surprised to begin with then very much humbled and grateful to be recognized for simply doing something I have loved most of my life,\u201d said Birnie after being told he was being inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame. \u201cWith my past connections to the Hall, I know that the list of inductees is composed of a stellar number of people who have been involved in our game in different ways. My inclusion is beyond my dreams.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
