Full Biography
|Hazel Measner (later Wildfong; June 2, 1925 – January 1, 1984) was a Canadian pitcher who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL).
Career
The Holdfast, Saskatchewan-born Measner was one of 68 players born in Canada to join the All American League in its twelve years history. Measner was assigned to the Rockford Peaches club in its 1946 season. She went hitless in one at bat and did not have a pitching record. Hazel Measner later married Vernon Wildfong (February 16, 1924 – October 9, 1998), who survived her.
