2006 Oshawa Dodgers Awards
Gary Carroll Playoff MVP
Congratulations to Ken Calway on back-to-back Gary Carroll Playoff MVP
honours. Ken is known for his hot bat come playoff time. He led the team with
5 RBI in the playoffs. In game 4, when it looked like the Dodgers were on the
verge of elimination down 1-0 in the top of the eighth inning, Ken hit a 3 run
homerun to extend the series. The next night he came through again scoring the
winning run with his sacrifice fly in the top of the 9th.
Ted McComb Pitcher of the Year
Congratulations to the 2006 Ted McComb Pitcher of the Year, Matt Tosoni who
led the team in ERA and is the all-time Dodgers leader in games started. Matt
stepped up in big game situations this season including Crohn’s and Colitis Day,
the Troy May tribute game and produced 3 quality playoff appearances. He has
overcome great adversity to be pitching with the Dodgers this season and is also
one of the team’s top hitters.
Bernie McGuire Season MVP
The 2006 Bernie McGuire Season MVP, Ryan Crotin, led the team in most
offensive categories. Ryan was 3rd in the IBL in batting and represented the
Dodgers at 3rd base in the 2006 IBL All-Star game. He was most recently named
a first team all-star as an outfielder for the second time in his Dodger career.
He is a team leader whose energetic attitude has made him a fan favourite. Since
joining the team in 2002 Ryan has consistently led the team in many categories.
Max Reid Award
The Max Reid Award is awarded to the Oshawa Dodger Player who most
displays the qualities of perseverance and dedication. This award was named for
Max Reid, father of former Oshawa Dodger Darryl Reid. Max was involved with
the conception of the Dodgers in 2001 but sadly passed away in January of 2002
prior to the Dodgers inaugural game. This season’s recipient battled through
injury to lead the Dodgers in wins and innings pitched despite suffering from a
torn ACL. His intensity and desire to win made him a pitcher to be reckoned with.
We are pleased to award Greg Byron with the Max Reid Award for Perseverance
and Dedication.
Bob Reid Batting Average Award
The Bob Reid Batting Average Award winner will come as no surprise. Ryan
Crotin was one of our two representatives at the 2006 IBL All-Star game. He
consistently comes through in key situations and is a team leader. Ryan led the
Dodgers and was 3rd in the IBL with a .378 batting average.
Vi Christopher On Base %
