Blue Jays' World Series champion elected to the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame

"Legendary Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Devon White will headline this year's induction class into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. The class will also include former national team mainstay and current St. Louis Cardinals coach Stubby Clapp, former Women's National Team star Katie Psota, and former Montreal Expos pitcher and executive Bill Stoneman. Blue Jays' World Series champion elected to the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame"

"White's induction announcement has been a long time coming, as he's one of the most beloved players on the Blue Jays' back-to-back World Series championship teams in 1992 and 1993. He made the most famous catch in team history, a running, leaping grab against the wall to rob David Justice of extra bases in Game 3 of the '92 World Series."

"White joined the Blue Jays in a trade from the Los Angeles Angels in December 1990 and he immediately established himself as a force at the top of the lineup and as a defensive presence in center field. Devo enjoyed his best season in 1991, hitting .282 with 40 doubles, 17 home runs, 10 triples, a .797 OPS, and 60 RBI. He also stole 33 bases and achieved a career-best 6.3 bWAR. He won the first of five consecutive Gold Glove awards that year and finished in the top-20 of AL MVP voting."

White starred for the Toronto Blue Jays on their back-to-back World Series teams in 1992 and 1993 and is remembered for a running, leaping catch in Game 3 of the 1992 World Series. White was acquired from the Angels in December 1990, hit .282 in 1991 with 40 doubles and 33 steals, and began a run of five straight Gold Gloves.
