Ceremonies for Baseball Hall of Fame induction will take place this year July 26 in Cooperstown take, and will always be with media representatives, their misinterpretation annual piece, something that may seem a bit 'anal next year, but is still important when it comes to writing and talking about things in a historical context. Writers and broadcasters will be honored, the days are known as "Hall of Fame" or "recruit", but theIt would be incorrect.
This year, Dave Niehaus, Ford C. Frick Award, emblematic of a "significant contribution" to enter into broadcasting baseball, an honor that is actually beneficial to the induction ceremony assigned. But this award is not to be admitted into the Hall, and never has been. Neither has the Spink Award, which is given to "receive for services to write about baseball" and Larry Whiteside.
It has long been a common misconception among fansand media representatives that the writers and broadcasters have been so honored enshrinees. I was under the misunderstanding at once. Only in the process of writing a Hall of Fame Trivia Book, a clarification of this issue was important to me.
I noticed that in a couple of "Sports Almanac", it says that the Frick and Spink unearned symbolic anchor. Then, during a pilgrimage to the Hall of Fame as part of my research, I visited the exhibitionHall of Fame Library, shows that these winners, and in a conversation with Hall of Fame officials, it seemed to me that in fact confirmed the prices were not the induction itself.
If you need further confirmation, you can go into the Baseball Hall of Fame Web site - where, under the description of both Frick and Spink awards the following passage - "Every winner (not to be confused with a rookie) ..."
Interestingly, given the Negro Leaguers, a similar fate whentheir "wings" was discussed in 1971. The Negro Leaguers were to be met in a separate "problem" without distinction of being ordinary members including Satchel Paige said: "I am not in the back door into the Hall of Fame. Finally, linked to the Hall of Fame officials, the public criticism and followed by setting of the former Negro Leaguers as "real" Hall of Fame.
Much of this can be totally meaningless, unless it is someone like me the questionsEnsure that the Hall of Fame players did this, and the Hall of Fame players did. In this case, the bears, in fact, a certain importance in determining who is and is not a Hall of Fame.
I submit, however, that deserve some members of the press and radio and television anchor in full, as many of them had so much influence, have been responsible for so much has contributed, as many of the players. Not even a year, which seems a bit 'too much, but certainly an eliteGroup that people would like to include Red Barber, Mel Allen, Vin Scully, Ernie Harwell, Harry Carey, Bob Prince, Jerome Holtzman, Bob Broeg, Hugh Fullerton, Red Smith, and some others.
