In light of yesterday’s breaking news around the dismissal of Gregg Zaun from Rogers Sportsnet, there was another important story that unfortunately flew under the radar.
On Thursday, it was announced that Alison Gordon would receive the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame’s, Jack Graney Award. The honour is presented to a member of the Canadian media for their contributions to the game of baseball in Canada.
According to Wikipedia, the Graney award is not given out annually, but rather when the committee feels that they have a deserving candidate to recognize. Gordon more than fits the bill for the trailblazing she did in the industry, as well as the great quality of her work.
