It was 11 years ago in Athens when I asked infielder Peter Orr why he wore No. 4.
Was he any relation to Bobby Orr?
“No,” said Orr, “but I think it is incumbent on any player named Orr to wear No. 4.”
Orr was Canada’s best defensive player throughout the round robin in Athens in 2004. In the eighth inning Cuba had a runner on first, Chris Begg on the mound and Canada leading by a run — six outs to get for a gold medal match up against Australia — when a ground ball was hit to Orr.
