I'm glad he's in, and that his wife lived long enough to see it.

Glad for Oliva and Kaat too, and both of them alive to enjoy it. Great day for Minnesota baseball fans.

Lousy day for Minnesota football fans.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I'm not shocked Hodges and Minoso got in. I'm surprised they got so many people elected by committee this time though. The structure of the voting makes this very difficult to do.

This will be a big induction ceremony upcoming with these results

Bud Fowler and Buck O'Neil were elected from the Early Baseball Era Committee ballot of 10 candidates, while Gil Hodges, Jim Kaat, Minnie Miñoso and Tony Oliva were elected from the 10 Golden Days Era Committee candidates

Congrats to all of them they are all well deserving

Love the Hodges vote, YES! Amazed Bill Dahlen fell short once again.
2500 hits, 1200 RBI, 500+ stolen bases. Man, what's it take?

Have to think this bodes well in the future for Keith Hernandez, Dale Murphy and Steve Garvey.

Your mention of Hernandez is a good parallel to Hodges for me. Besides sharing first base, Hernandez was the rock of those great Mets teams, just as Hodges was to the great Brooklyn teams of the 50's.

...fair trade off?? I'd say!

I strongly think Ortiz gets in on writers ballot and he started in MN as you know.

I can't think of a better DH since the position came into existence. Maybe it was just perception, but he seemed like maybe the most clutch hitter I ever saw.

Will be weird to see Ortiz - who failed a steroid test - get into the Hall but Clemens and Bonds - who didn't fail one - not get in despite being significantly better players.
