Reds Rover

Matt Lloyd vividly remembers how his 2022 baseball season came to an unexpected end.

The Calgary native was patrolling first base for the Chattanooga Lookouts in a May 3 game against Rocket City, when a hard-hit ball was relayed back to him.

Trying to simultaneously catch the ball and dive and tag the runner, he felt a pop, that led to a surgery and lengthy rehabilitation.

In The Cards: 1994 Calgary Cannons

It’s a funny thing.

This series is called “In The Cards”, which would lead you to believe that the main stories of a particular season are reflected in the cardboard collectibles on display.

Tilleman’s All-Alberta Team

Dale Tilleman’s first year scouting sandlots looking for diamonds in the rough was in 1993.

He was a part-time scout, working for New York Yankees scout Dick Groch, who signed Hall of Famer Derek Jeter.

Canadian Baseball Network’s Bob Elliott tapped in Tilleman to come up with his all-time Alberta squad.

Tremendous Tino

He is easily one of the best players to ever play for the Calgary Cannons.

Tino Martinez put up MVP numbers during his two seasons (1990-1991) with the Cannons.

We take a look back at his time at Foothills Stadium, including a trade that almost sent him to Pittsburgh.
