MLB Hall Of Fame 2020 Class Results/Reaction

Derek Jeter and Larry Walker were the only 2 player inductees in this years BBWA Hall Of Fame Class. Derek Jeter was one vote shot of being unanimous. Could you imagine hating the Yankees/ Jeter so much that you’re the only one that doesnt vote him in?! I’d really like to see this guys ballot because if he has Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens voted for But not Derek Jeter then he needs his credentials revoked and his ass sent back to school for a history lesson on baseball! Derek Jeter had a career .310 average, 3,465 hits (6th most in MLB history and a Yankees franchise record) and 1,923 runs scored. In 2000, he became the 1st player in League history to win both the All-star and World Series MVP. It is also worth mentioning that no matter the circumstances, when the team needed a boost, offensively or defensively, Derek Sanderson Jeter made is happen! Congrats #2. Thank you for making my childhood an amazing one. Also inducted was longtime Colorado Rockies RF Larry Walker. Larry was the 1997 NL MVP, batting .366 and mashing 49 homeruns. He was also a 7-time gold glover and 5-time all star. Larry Walker, it seemed was going to get the Coors field treatment, meaning the writers usually don’t vote Rockies in because of where they play, but his numbers were good no matter where he was. Congrats Larry, thank you for being a big part of my childhood too. It was an honor to watch you play.
