Hall Of Fame Results

The Hall of Fame results were announced at 2:00pm eastern time. Here are the new inductees. Joe Gordon and Tony Kubek were inducted by the veterans comitee. Joe Gordon was a former yankees second baseman and Tony Kubek a former Yankees announcer. Here are the regular inductees. Rickey Henderson Jim Rice Rickey Henderson was an obvious choice to me. He is the greatest leadoff hitter of all time. He was a true hot dog but i used to enjoy interacting with him when he was a yankee. Jim Rice gets in on his last chance to get in. This was the 15th year he was eligible and he finally makes it. I'm sure Red Sox Nation is rejoicing but he deserved to get in. I think you can make arguments for Andre Dawson and Jack Morris. Don Mattingly is my all time favorite player and i would love for him to get in, but he just didn't put up the numbers for a long enough period of time due to his back injuries. He only got 11.9 percent of the vote. The announcement was on the MLB network, the first time it was on national television. I will be back later with more opinions on this and would love to get a discussion going. If anyone has any opinions on any of the nominees or the ones that did get in please let me know and we will talk about it.
