Tip O’Neill Award
The James “Tip” O’Neill Award is presented annually to the Canadian baseball player of the year. The winner is chosen by a committee that is organized by the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. The committee reviews that year’s statistics for all Canadian players and announces the winner in early December. The award is named in honour of James “Tip” O’Neill, a Major League Baseball (MLB) star from the 19th century who is often considered Canada’s Babe Ruth. Larry Walker, who first won the award as a 20-year-old in Double-A, received the award nine times — more than any other player. Joey Votto won it seven times, while Justin Morneau and Jason Bay won it three times and Eric Gagné received it twice. Daniel Brabant is the only amateur player to win the award.
