		The Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame is nothing so much as a reminder of the game's longstanding second-fiddle status in our sprawling, hockey-obsessed neighbor to the north, but over the past decade that has slowly been changing.
		Baseball was still definitely secondary to hockey and volleyball, but he had incredible natural tools and tremendous mental makeup, and you couldn't find a guy who would work any harder.
