The Baseball Writers of America are a joke, and make the entire process of enshrinement in the Baseball Hall of Fame a joke.

Ron was a class guy, and a great player. Too bad the elite writers couldn't recognize him when he was alive.

"Santo, Kessinger, Beckert, Banks, the infield 3rd to 1st, the battery Jenkins and Huntley." I grew up as a Northsider listing to Jack Brickhouse calling those games in the 60's and 70's.

Stan, I'm glad he got in and also wish it had been earlier, but ... you're not exactly impartial, are ya'? ;)
