Dave Parker and Dick Allen were voted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame through the Classic Baseball Era Committee ballot on Sunday.

Parker and Allen were members of an eight-name ballot that also included Ken Boyer, John Donaldson, Steve Garvey, Vic Harris, Tommy John and Luis Tiant. The CBE ballot focuses on candidates who contributed to the game of baseball prior to 1980, including Negro Leagues and pre-Negro Leagues members.

Candidates needed 75 percent of the vote from the 16-member committee to receive induction into the Hall of Fame.
