Sportsnet's Hazel Mae enjoys the comforts of home during the World Series
Blue Jays' on-field reporter is the face of the team's unlikely run deep into October
www.theglobeandmail.comThe latest notable Hazel Mae news I found is that CBC featured her on April 12, 2026 in a profile about her career, her role as a trailblazing sportscaster, and recent honors, including the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame’s Jack Graney Award. CBC also published a companion interview the same day where she spoke candidly about criticism and how she handles it.[6][9]
What’s recent
- In December 2025, Hazel Mae was named the winner of the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum’s 2025 Jack Graney Award for her lifetime contribution to baseball media in Canada.[2]
- In April 2026, CBC highlighted her influence during the Blue Jays’ World Series run and noted that she is only the second woman to receive the Jack Graney Award.[6]
- CBC’s separate April 2026 interview focused on her openness about criticism and the pressure of being in the public eye.[9]
Other recent appearances
- A late-2025 CBC video featured her discussing emotional on-field interviews and postseason celebrations, reflecting how visible she’s been during the Blue Jays’ playoff run.[3]
- A December 2025 interview also centered on her career path and recognition after receiving the Jack Graney Award.[5]
Hazel Mae appears to be in the news mainly for career recognition, her Blue Jays coverage, and a candid recent CBC interview rather than for any major personal controversy.[2][9][6]
