Jim Rice and Ricky Henderson, along with Veteran's Committee selection Joe Gordon, were inducted into the Hall of Fame Sunday.
Tony Kubek entered the broadcaster's wing, and Nick Peters entered as a sportswriter.
As anyone who has ever been to Cooperstown for an induction knows, it was probably a fun place to be. Though it did not approach the ungodly 70,000 people mark the Gwynn-Ripken induction knotted, a solid contingent of 21,000 was on hand to welcome the foursome into the Hall.
There has been plenty written about them, so I'll just leave you with some stats.
