(Brace yourself: this is a long one…)
The National Baseball Hall of Fame inducted two of the most deserving Hall-of-Famers in years on Sunday, a pair of 1990s icons who were standard bearers of their respective positions. One was a five-tool all-star outfielder with a sweet, left-handed swing. The other was a right-handed offensive force at a position historically lacking big hitters. Interestingly, that could very well describe a pair of San Francisco Giants who were on the ballot.
Now, Sunday belonged to Ken Griffey Jr. and Mike Piazza, so I don’t want to take anything a way from their enshrinements.
