Fullerton's Roundup on Hall of Fame Ballot Controversy
Hugh Fullerton Jr argues that no current era players made the Hall of Fame on the latest ballot and faults memory gaps among voters. He suggests having historians who witnessed early baseball identify standout stars from prior decades and advocate inducting era pioneers like Bond Nash Kelly Keefe Lange Duffy and Radbourne alongside Cartwright Spalding and others already honored.
