}}Ruby Knezovich [Martz] (March 18, 1918 – August 1, 1995) was a Canadian catcher who played from 1943 to 1944 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Listed at 5' 2", 130 lb., she batted and threw right handed.[1] Born in Hamilton, Ontario,[2][3] Ruby Knezovich was one of the 57 players born in Canada to join the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League in its twelve-year history. Her younger sister, Daisy Junor, also played in the league.[1][2] Knezovich shared the catching duties along with Irene Hickson and Anna May Hutchison during her two seasons with the Racine Belles.[4] In a 17-game career, Ruby posted a batting average of .146 (6-for-41), with four runs scored, two RBI and one stolen base. As a fielder, she hauled in 29 putouts with 16 assists and turned one double play, while committing two errors in 47 total chances for a combined .957 fielding average. [4] In 1988 was inaugurated a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, New York, that honors those who were part of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Ruby Knezovich, along with the rest of the girls and the league staff, is included at the display/exhibit.[5] Then in 1998, three years after her death, Ruby and all Canadian AAGPBL players gained honorary induction into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.[6] Sources1. ^1 All-American Girls Professional Baseball League Official Website {{All-American Girls Professional Baseball League}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Knezovich, Ruby}}2. ^1 Heaphy, Leslie A.; May, Mel Anthony 2006).
