Hey half-baked voters. We had good turn out this month with 21 of you submitting ballots, including Can of Corn and Philosopher, who had taken some time off.

Let's get the obvious one out of the way first, shall we?

 

Our second player to gain election unanimously, Honus Wagner joins Christy Mathewson in the hallowed 100 percent club.

 

We can't spell his name here at the WGOM, but we sure do know he was a great pitcher. At least 76% of us know that. Congratulations to Gettysburg Eddie!

 

Yickit was less sure of him, but he wound up voting for him anyway. McGinnity is glad, too, since Yickit's vote was the deciding one on his fifth ballot.  With 76% of the vote, we're sure he belongs in the Half-Baked Hall!

 

The all-time leader in triples hits another three-bagger, nabbing 86% of the vote. Sam Crawford, the WGOM will always go to third base with you.

 

The rich man's Addie Joss, Ed Walsh gets just enough YES votes to sneak in. The all-time leader in E.R.A. is now a member of the largest induction class for the half-baked hall. Welcome Addie!

Remaining on the Ballot (15 Players)

The winner of the non-electees was Addie Joss, storming right up near the 75% mark with three ballots to go. Fred Clark and Bill Dahlen also creep up. Bobby Wallace has the best showing of the new guys.

Jimmy Collins brief surge for third basemen everywhere appears to have stalled.

Bobby Wallace: 62%
Jimmy Collins: 48% -13
