Doris Witiuk [Shero] (May 22, 1929 – January 26, 2014) was a Canadian outfielder who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) in 1950 and 1951. She played under her maiden name of Doris Shero.[1]

With the Racine Belles in 1950, Doris hit .093 with 10 stolen bases in 83 games. She had 18 hits in 194 at-bats. In 1951, with the Battle Creek Belles, she hit .100, with four hits in 40 at-bats.[1]

The AAGPBL folded in 1954, but there is a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, New York, since November 5, 1988, that honors the entire league rather than any individual figure.[2] Then in 1998, Doris and all Canadian AAGPBL players gained honorary induction into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame.[3]

Personal life

Her husband was National Hockey League player Steve Witiuk.[4] Her brother is hockey player Fred Shero, while her nephew is hockey executive Ray Shero.
