Doc is headed to baseball’s most prestigious club.
Roy Halladay has been officially elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Halladay will be the 108th player to be posthumously inducted into the Hall.
Halladay – or “Doc,” as he was affectionately referred to – was one of the greatest pitchers in the last two decades, if not the best. The towering 6’6″ pitcher struck fear into any batter that stepped up to the plate, while his competitive drive was unmatched.
Halladay attended Arvada High School in Colorado, and was drafted in the first round (17th overall) by the Toronto Blue Jays in 1995.
