    By Tony Parker 2005 Baseball Canada Senior Championship- August 28-28th, 2005 Welcome to the web site of the 2005 Baseball Canada Senior Baseball Championship. Baseball history doesn’t always have to be boring statistical analysis. This is a game that began somewhere in the early 1800’s and was increasingly documented after the first major professional league was founded in the United States in 1876 and Canada has been very much a part of that game as you will find below. In addition to this section we have also created a series of baseball trivia and informationals that will allow you to learn more about the game in what we hope is an entertaining fashion. As few boring stats as possible , because few of us are bookkeepers or accountants. Foxy & Tip Marchildon Too Canadian Baseball is alive and well and has contributed greatly to the Major League game, even if Ferguson Jenkins remains the only Canadian born player enshrined at Cooperstown. You may think that Larry Walker is the lone Canadian to win a Major League batting crown and if so, you would be wrong, but if you weren’t alive in 1887 then you didn’t see a Canadian lad named Tip O’Neill become the first ever triple crown winner in professional baseball history or that legendary U.S. Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill was named after that same Canadian triple crown winner. And did you know that the first player to use a padded glove (Foxy Irwin), the first retired player to start broadcasting games on radio (Jack Graney) and the first no-hitter recorded after the top players returned from service in WW II (Dick Fowler) were also Canadians? Graney also played in the same starting outfield with baseball legend Shoeless Joe Jackson as well as Hall of Fame player Tris Speaker and batted behind Cy Young in his final big league season when Cy was wrapping up his career record of 51 1 wins (Unquestionably baseball’s most unbreakable Major League mark).

  • June 28, 1915 Elmer Leifer 32 K’S
    June 28, 1915 Elmer Leifer 32 K’s In a Washington State semipro game between Ewan and Maiden, Ewan’s Elmer Leifer, released earlier in the spring by the Spokane Indians, strikes out 32 batters in a 19-inning 6-4 win. Born on May 23, 1893, Leifer begins a nine- year professional baseball career in 1916 as a outfielder/pitcher with the Butte Miners in the Northwestern (B) League. On July 21, 1921, Leifer, a 28-year-old player/manager with the Moose Jaw Millers of the Western Canada (B) League, is sold to the American League’s Chicago White Sox for $1,200. However, he will remain with the Millers for the remainder of the regular season. The Clarington, Ohio., native makes his major league debut against the St. Louis Browns on September 7, 1921. Subbing for starting left fielder Johnny Mostil, Leifer is 1-for-2 with a ninth-inning RBI single against Browns pitcher Dixie Davis in a 10-2 loss, Leifer will play in 10 games for the White Sox that September, collecting three hits in 10 at bats (.300) with one RBI. After being one of the last players cut by the White Sox coming out of spring training in 1922, Leifer signs on with the Little Rock Travelers of the Southern (A) Association. He is batting .329 in 24 games when on May 10, he collides with shortstop Travis Jackson in game against the Atlanta Crackers that fractures the frontal bone in his head and forces the removal of his left eye. The league begins a fund raising effort to assist Leifer, now recovering in a Chicago hospital and a total of nearly $5,000 is raised.
