The voting for the 2023 class of the National Baseball Hall of Fame was announced on Tuesday, and Scott Rolen was the only player elected by the Baseball Writers Association of America. Rolen will join Fred McGriff, elected last month by the veterans committee, as the two new Hall of Famers inducted this summer.
What this means from a Dodgers perspective is that former LA second baseman Jeff Kent is out of tries. In his tenth and final appearance on the BBWAA ballot, Kent got 46.5% of the vote, well shy of the 75% needed for election.
