The Oregon-based nonprofit "Friends of Baseball" named retired MLB umpires Jim Joyce and Dale Scott as inaugural Oregon Legends alongside several others in the Pacific northwest state who have made significant contributions to baseball and softball.Local softball umpire Sue Seaver, who has also served as tournament director for Alpenrose Stadium's Little League Softball World Series, was also named an Oregon Legend.
According to the Daily Astorian, 2018 marks the group's first "Oregon Legends" class, although the organization was first established in 2006 to promote baseball at the youth and grassroots level.
