Matt Stairs

Saturday, February 29th
10:30am - 11:30pm
Matt Stairs is a Canadian former professional baseball outfielder, first baseman, and designated hitter, who holds the record for most pinch-hit home runs in Major League Baseball (MLB) history with 23. His ability to pinch hit made him a valuable asset to several teams and earned him the nickname “Matt Stairs – Professional Hitter”. His pinch-hit home run in the eighth inning of Game 4 in the 2008 National League Championship Series off the Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Jonathan Broxton was called “one of the most memorable home runs in Phillies history”. He ranks either first or second in power hitting categories for Canadian major leaguers. On February 4, 2015, Stairs was elected to the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.
