WSC Hall Of Fame Class Of 2016





The votes have been tallied and here are the results.

There were three players elected this year and three players received too few votes to be on next year's ballot.

Congratulations to Gary Peters, Robin Ventura and Hoyt Wilhelm for being the three players inducted into the WSC Hall of Fame Class of 2016!

Jerry Hairston, Ron Karkovice and Jorge Orta received too few votes to stay on the ballot, so there will be new players at starting pitcher, third base, outfield, second base, catcher and closer on next year's ballot.

Thank you to everyone who voted!

Here are the final totals.

Hoyt Wilhelm - 60 votes (84%)
Gary Peters - 56 votes (78%)
