Former Star-Telegram columnist named finalist for Hall of Fame honor

Former Star-Telegram columnist and Rangers beat writer Jim Reeves was once again named one of three finalists on Tuesday for the J.G. Taylor Spink Award, the top honor for a baseball writer.

Reeves, who retired in 2009, was a finalist last year, when the award went to Claire Smith of the New York Times. She will be honored during Hall of Fame weekend July 28-31 in Cooperstown, N.Y.

Minneapolis Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse, who covered the Minnesota Twins, and Sheldon Ocker, who covered the Cleveland Indians for the Akron Beacon Journal, are the other finalists this year.
