Facing Canadians

I've reverted a recent edit about a claim that Votto vs Richmond (in June 2009) may have been the first instance of two Canadians facing each other. This is clearly false. Even restricting the discussion to games in Toronto, the first instance (that I've found) was Ferguson Jenkins vs Dave McKay on 24 April 1977. I haven't checked for games in Montreal, but I'm sure earlier instances can be found. (There was a close one on 14 April 1977, in which John Hiller was relieved just before McKay came to bat, and on 11 April 1977, in which the batter before McKay made the last out against Hiller in the 8th innning.)

It's likely that the earliest instance of two Canadians facing each other was in the 1880s, when numerous Canadians played for nearly a decade during the early days of organized baseball in the US. Likely candidates for such a matchup include Tip O'Neill, Bill Phillips, Arthur Irwin, Pop Smith, or John Irwin. Mind matrix 14:09, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
