Writers Seek Changes in Hall of Fame Voting Format
The Baseball Writers Association of America plans to challenge the Veteran's Committee over Hall of Fame selection. Writers say the committee has added weak inductees like Fred Lindstrom and Long George Kelly, who never garnered writer support. The writers require 75 percent on ballots, while the Veterans Committee needs nine of twelve votes. They meet in New York on January 29 to discuss reforms.
