Message from the President – Andrew Downs Welcome to the 2021 Baseball season! As an organization, looking back on the 2020 season, I would sum it up as a season of learning. We learned to social distance, developed new routines for work / school / sport, became experts in Zoom and learned the importance of washing our hands and wearing masks to protect ourselves, family and strangers alike. In the baseball community, we learned to adapt our game to meet the COVID-19 guidelines as provided by public health. Although, not perfect, we did learn a lot and, in most cases, changed how we do things to be more efficient and timelier. Once again, I would like to recognize the strength in our provincial baseball community. To the association leaders, coaches, umpires, volunteers, players, parents and supporters of baseball, thank you. Thank you for working tirelessly, harnessing all your energy and skills to be innovative, supportive, and proactive to provide a safe environment to play the game we all love.

    1. Paul Beeston , CEO on an interim basis, Blue Jays (10). With the death of Ted Rogers, owner of Rogers Communications and the Jays, Beeston (Welland, Ont.) may be around a long enough to shed his interim tag. Whether he goes or stays, people will be say five years from now what a good/bad hire the next president of the Jays was. 2. Greg Hamilton , director of national teams, junior coach, Baseball Canada (1A). No ones makes as many decisions and runs through as many mine fields as he does. This year. for example. he put together four distinct rosters: The pre-Olympic tourney in March at Taiwan; the Canadian junior team, which lost in the quarters at Edmonton in August; the Olympic team in Bejing and the 2009 junior team which headed to Florida in October. He has been negotiating with MLB teams for the World Baseball Classic, to be played at the Rogers Centre in March. You can find Hamilton (Peterborough, Ont.) at his Ottawa office until 10:30 most nights. 3. Pat Gillick, senior adviser, Philadelphia Phillies (5). As GM, he guided the Phillies to the 2008 World Series — his third. He became a Canadian citizen in November of 2005 after living in Toronto since 1976 and has always supported Canadian baseball. He led the Jays, Orioles, Mariners and the Phillies to post-season play 11 times in his final 20 seasons. He added Jamie Moyer, Brad Lidge, J.C.

The night before, he opened a window on the fearlessness that has become his calling card. “I have had to prove myself ever since I was a little kid,” said the Blue Jays centrefielder. “My parents always told me to work hard.” Pillar, who is Jewish, anchored an all-star lineup at Maccabi Canada’s Sports Unplugged – Talkin’ Baseball. The event drew about 500 people to the University of Toronto’s Goldring Centre for High Performance Sport. Toronto-born broadcaster Dan Shulman, a Maccabi alum, interviewed Pillar and helped secure the other media figures interviewed: Mike Wilner, Shi Davidi, Tim Micallef and Sid Seixeiro. With the event, Maccabi raised funds to subsidize athletes’ attendance at Maccabiah games, which are held every four years in Israel, and increased the organization’s profile. “Maccabi has definitely increased its community involvement,” said event co-chair Mike Bacher, “and that is a pillar of our current set of priorities now and for the future.” READ: FIRST-EVER ISRAELI MLB DRAFT PICK PROUD TO REPRESENT HIS COUNTRY Pillar’s winding road to major-league success is not unique in baseball.
