London Free Press: Four inducted into Canadian baseball hall of fame

The latest from Canada’s version of Cooperstown—St. Marys, Ontario:

Tony Fernandez, Billy Harris, Gladwyn Scott, and the late Peter Widdrington were honoured, surrounded by family, friends and fans. And each was met by a standing ovation.

The induction ceremony took place under a big tent and the crowd spilled out on all three sides as people gathered to catch a glimpse of history in the making.

It is really sad that Tim Raines isn't even in the Canadian Baseball HOF.

Doesn't bode well for him making the big hall.

Mr Fernandez is also in the Met Fan "Players We Hated Hall Of Fame". He was Robbie Alomar for the 90's. Didn't give a #### and showed it.
